5. Why is CBS not going to call PA tonight? This is so slanted to favor
Bush all night long. This is absolutely an embarrassment to democracy.

6. Like it matters
Seriously... I'm so pissed off at the accompli media at this point...

My son is begging me to move to a blue state and he's only 5.

Will giving up family ties (and help) for more money (to be spent on child care) be worth it?

Or should I stay and fight for the stupid South (very proud to be a Southerner - where at least I know I'm smart).

I don't even have the money to look for jobs in other states.

7. Depends on which precints ...

Just like Florida Democratic precincts are under-reported, Republican counties could be slow in Pennsylvania.

Though, the Republican counties tend to close on time since they have enough voting machines. So perhaps ANY late return shouldfavor Democrats!!!!

8. FWIW: the station I'm watching has called PA for Kerry
German TV, that is.

9. From my days of watching election returns with a mathematician BF
I know that Kerry's lead would be hard to catch up with at this point unless all the rest of the precincts went almost entirely for Bush, which is highly unlikely.

10. Why haven't they called it yet then?
Is the media waiting for the vote totals to be changed by the chimp campaign or what? This is bullshit.

11. Kerry WILL get PA
But even so, he still needs either OH or FL. Neither looks promising, to be quite honest. Please don't call me a Freeper for being a realist. I've fought reality as long as I can tonight.
