3. This is an ongoing situation in Florida, but, the lead is 300,000+
The only reason I think Florida may go to Bush with or without the mysterious dissapearing reappearing absentee ballots is that he is carrying the state right now with 98% reporting at about 330,000 votes. EVEN IF FL & OH go to Bush, we can still win this! It's not over!!!

4. I want to see what happens with over a million uncounted ballots, myself
Some of them are absentee, some of them are provisional, and most of them are from heavy Dem counties.

5. denial
looks like we lost.

To overcome the Bush lead we need a lot of uncounted votes and I don't see how we're coming up with them. They are aren't there.

7. Face it...
We lost FL. We're down by 300,000+ votes @ 98% reporting. Even the absentee ballots, overseas ballots and provisional ballots will not make up that difference.
