8. If ever there was proof that CNN has crossed to the Fox side, that's it.
They are more subtle, and not all their news broadcasters agree, but CNN has definitely swung to the conservative side and pushes Bush.

Maybe out of ideology. Maybe because they want the FCC to give them even more rights to own even more media in a given area. Or maybe because they are distraught that Faux has taken some of its audience.

I RARELY WATCH CNN ANYMORE. It's not fair and balanced anymore!

9. Wha?!?!
"In other breaking news, Gorge Bousch is slightly shorter than opponent John Kerry, but only as a result of Kerry's superior height."

10. So is Bush behind due to fewer voters?
What an amazing concept. A democracy where votes matter. Lets hope so.

11. Get ready for CNN's Nov. 3rd angle:
'You see, Kerry only won the election becuase liberal 527's organized all their members to go out in unison on Election Day and clog the ballot boxes with pro-Kerry votes. When you remove these votes, Bush won by a 100% margin."

30. Ha ha, only serious.
"... When you remove these votes, Bush won by a 100% margin."

And of course, we know that's exactly the GOP's strategy this year. Don't sway more voters -- just remove votes!

20. I have to extend my praise to Ohio Democrats
They have very actively mobilized masses of urban minority voters in that state, very much with the aid of Dennis Kucinich.

Kerry is very much ahead in the cities of Ohio, while Bush rules in the rural areas.
Getting the minorities in the major cities has helped greatly, and since 78 percent of the population of Ohio is in its cities, Ohio would be a blue state if its minorities were induced to vote in large numbers.
