20. According to a DUer here ... Don Claybrook
"Terry Moran saying Bush campaign officials in a "very combative mood right now". Saying WH is leaning heavily on me (Moran) and all other press types to report that voting isn't over, polls still open in west, etc. Sounds like they're trying to spin it as hard as possible."

30. Why in the world would we need him to tell us that?
He is such a stupid asshole. Rove is up to something. They are trying to affect the remaining polls. There is a little over an hour left, right? I wonder if New Mexico and stuff like that has closed.

What * is about to do, unless he's reporting a thermonuclear attack on the US, is utterly WRONG. Polls are still open and this will likely influence votes.

43. They're mounting a pre-emptive attack on the Democrats!!!!

My guess is he's going to pull out a bunch of bitch's that somehow Democrats are trying to suppress the Republican vote. He'll also claim that the poll ordered open late are illegal and he'll contest them!!!

These fuckers are mad dog. Even if Kerry wins despite their voting suppression, I think they'll try to take this as far as they possibly can and try to start a general conflict by projecting the illusion that they're the rightful winners!!!!

55. trying to counteract the stories about * acting glum
The nets know which way its going, but are waiting to confirm trends with new voters compared with the exit polling. Once the polls are closed on the west coast and enough precincts report they will call them.

They don't want to get it wrong and a close election boosts viewership.
