Which Network will break and call it early?
All of them are chanting the mantra that they will NOT call early.

But if it looks like the winner is clear (Clearly Kerry YEAH!) one of the network bosses is going to break and go for the glory.

Who's it gonna be?

I predict MSNBC. I just can't see the little cable network that sucked passing up a chance to beat Fox or CNN on this one.

1. I think fox will break and call it for *.
And they'll be wrong. And nobody will say anything about it. =(

But they won't get White House press passes! Mwahahahaha.

2. After the debacle 4 years ago,
I think everyone is going to be extra cautious. That is, unless it's a LANDSLIDE!

4. They already are
As I was getting dressed in the locker room FAUX was on on the TV. They had some sort of poll up, one I had never heard of, one they probably made up whole cloth. Bush was leading in Ohio and Florida of course. Because I could not hear the talking heads, only see the graphics, I was unable to hear the multiple orgasms. I do not buy the polls they were using for a minute.

5. Laura Ingrahm was reading some poll numbers this morning.
She read off about 4 or 5 and all were like this Bush 51% Kerry 47%. I haven't seen that many polls going that way for Bush. She might be reading polls from red states only.

My guess is that the wingnut talk shows will tell their listeners that Bush is winning in a landslide all day long.
