I said I would not stay up late like I did in 2000, but here it is 1:17 a.m., and I am still watching. Looking good for Bush!!!PuroBrat said:Anybody still watching the returns? Or am I alone again...
Naturally
Same here, it is looking like time for a Victory DanceRandyb1 said:I cant make up my mind stay inside and keep watching or go outside in the cold and have a cigar
Where you see that Phishy? CNN shows 249, but he is leading in OH and NM which is another 25 EVs.vewyphishy said:269 for Bush. :sign:
I agree it would be the smart thing to do, but let's not forget who we are talking about.... :lookup:SKYDIVNEKD said:If GW wins Ohio, would it not do the Democratic Party a world of good for Kerry to conceed the election?! Disregard all of the court appeals and such. Just walk away with his pride and take one for the team. Setting them up for the '08 elections. I believe the Libs would fare better that way. Folks are still a bit ticked over the '00 debackle(sp?).
Discuss it amongst yourselves!

He wont be able to do that, the dems have lost all their respectability and will file lawsuits all over everywhere it is close.Kerry would do himself much good if he did just concede a well fought battle and move on.It is about time they got over the loss in 2000 and let the country get back on a road to harmony so we can move forward as a country but that is just a dream to me.SKYDIVNEKD said:If GW wins Ohio, would it not do the Democratic Party a world of good for Kerry to conceed the election?!

no concession speeches yet... does this mean the legal protests will be filed tomorrow?PuroBrat said:I dunno who your guy is, but it looks like Bush is gonna pull it off, barring any major legal action by the Kerry Camp
as of right now, Bush is ahead in NM and OH, those 2 states are worth 25 EVs and that would put bushes projected EVs at 271, according to CNN, and 270 is a win.
That is the Buzz on all the news sites.moki said:no concession speeches yet... does this mean the legal protests will be filed tomorrow?PuroBrat said:I dunno who your guy is, but it looks like Bush is gonna pull it off, barring any major legal action by the Kerry Camp

His only hope would be to take Ohio away from Bush. So I expect a bunch of Dem. Lawyers to converge on poor OH before the sun rises in the morning ???SKYDIVNEKD said:Did ya see Edwards little speech?! ??? Hopefully he meant they were just gonna let it ride out tonight and then in the AM, call it a day!(meaning conceed)
However, he did say, "...we won't rest until EVERY vote is counted...." Doesn't sound too promising for a quiet exit!
