no coffee, only sedatives - nyquil and beer - but there'll be no chance in hell that i'll be going to bed any time soon. i'm very bipolar, depending on how the states report (right now it's 197-188).

this shit is bad on my nerves.

any thoughts?

Anyone else feel that Bush has got Florida nailed down? With 94% voting, he's up at 51.7%.

I think no one will call because of last year.

well they're still voting in ohio. doubtful they'll be finished counting in there until tomorrow. florida has like 180,000 absentees they haven't started on yet. Minnesota, Wisconsin Iowa... are all way too close to be called. it's still wide open. it's like sports! 9 months of it followed by the 36 hour sudden death.

Thing is, all 180,000 absentees ain't going to one guy. Unless of course it's Nader.

And upon further review, according to the Florida Dept. of State, all 180,000 still ain't enough.

i'm just out there . . . waiting for the elation or the depression. i can't believe that there are as many red states as there are. but it's f-ing close! it's not an easy night.

just makes me think of how stressful the late night of november 2nd was in 2000 - how as that four years ago?!?!?!

But as best as I can tell, so far all the states have fallen the same way they did four years ago.

that's true . . . if they all fall the same, shrub would have a stronger win, right?

Damn right.

Why the fuck is Ron Reagan on as an analyst? The only question he is qualified to answer is "Can I get that with onion rings?"

MSNBC is now calling Ohio for GWB, but not Bone Thugs. New Mexico next?

EDIT: Nope, Alaska. That's 269.
