I used to really hate James Carville, for some reason he's starting to grow on me.

But Robert Novak still annoys the hell out of me.

53% of Cuyahoga (or however you spell it) has been counted.

MWM · 11-02-2004, 11:59 PM

I really like the comments Carville is making on the Democratic party reassessing their entire strategy if they lose this election. With the war in Iraq, th economy, and the winning all three debates, Kerry should not lose this election. If he does, it's time to take a long look in the mirror.

cnn.com currently has Bush with 197 Electoral Votes. Kerry holds 188.

If Bush wins Florida (almost a lock now) and Ohio (uncertain), that would put him at 244. Bush will win Arizona (10 EV) and Montana (3 EV). That adds up to 257. He should win Colorado (9 EV). That's 266.

If one more state not listed falls to Bush (assuming he wins Ohio), that's game over folks.

Ohio could end up being the Florida of 2004. It's going to come down to the wire and a recount is possible.

The way this thing is headed, you might be able to say that about a number of states. Wow.

Cuyahoga heavily leans towards Kerry. But local news is saying that Ohio could be determined by the tally of votes in Franklin County.

Right now CBS News has Bush ahead 246-199(including Florida). Add in Ohio and its 266. All he would need from that list is Nevada, New Mexico, Hawaii, or New Hampshire, and one of those is easily attainable.

Franklin is also highly Democratic. I still think it goes down to the wire. I definitely wouldn't put Ohio in the Bush column just yet. It's going to wind up less than 1%.

MWM · 11-03-2004, 12:05 AM

I feel about the same way following this election as I did the ALCS.

MWM · 11-03-2004, 12:07 AM

74% of Ohio precincts have no reported and the gap has been narrowed. Bush's lead is now only 120,000 votes.

Don't go to bed folks.

I agree, MWM. It's going to be a close one.

I was looking at ABC, CNN, and they were all giving a different total on electorial college.
