I'm still not going to breathe easy until they call it on election night...

[cynatnite]

I know that President Obama's chances are better than average, but I'd rather not count my chickens until election night.

I haven't forgotten 2004.

[RomneyLies]

1. A 16.3% probability is still a chance and is why I will not breathe easy until it's over.

It would force every pollster to alter their methodology if it happened, but the possibility still exists.

2004, though, did not seem as likely to me. I always felt John Kerry was the underdog all the way to election day.

21. Or as Nate Silver put it, we're ahead by 3 points, & there's 3 min left in the 4th quarter.

That's about an 80% chance of victory, so things are looking good, but rMoney's not beaten yet.

Don't get cocky.

[kentuck]

2. What'sa matter??

You don't believe the polls?

[cynatnite]

7. Just keeping a healthy amount of skepticism alive...

Plus all the "it's a virtual tie" the corporate media keeps going on about is tough to ignore as well.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. I hate to say it, but I agree with you.

It's not that I don't believe the polls. Rather, it's because there's so much voter suppression going on.

*sigh*

We had better win this one.

[gateley]

5. I fear the voter suppression is far greater than we're aware of.

[blaze]

11. This really scares the crap out of me.

No matter what the polls say, I still think they could easily steal it.

[gateley]

17. Me, too. Two reports here in Washington State that we're aware of. The dirty, sneaky ways they

Come up with is alarming.

[gateley]

4. I'm with you but I'm becoming a little giddy. Then a pundit had to remind us

(about the polls). Sharon Angle and Obama/Hillary in NH primary.

[exboyfil]

6. I won't be certain until Biden

opens the box with the electoral votes in them and counts them

[HopeHoops]

8. Hang onto your tiny ass. The rMoney legal team won't let it be over until after Christmas.

[jimlup]

9. Nor have we forgotten '00

I totally agree. We need to be careful. My most concern is still Ohio but Florida, Pennsylvania and Virginia could experience "irregularities"

[etherealtruth]

10. I hear you!

I have no doubt Obama is the far better person ... the far better choice ... but, my memory is long.

[Horse with no Name]

12. Me either. I remember too.

I had been a lurker here but didn't feel the need to join until the election was stolen.

I was scratching on the door NEEDING to talk to people about it, and because of the infiltration of freepers, they had shut down the registration process.

I remember begging to be let in! LOL

[cynatnite]

19. I was thinking you'd been here longer than me...

I remember how insane it was. Skinner had tried to prepare us for the worst and warned us that there would be some who would cause trouble. It was true, too. What a rough few days that was.

Glad you got in!

[Horse with no Name]

20. Thanks! Me too! It's been a lifesaver through the rough political patches! n/t

[AsahinaKimi]

13. What worries me most is election fraud...

The chance electronic voting machines could either lose or flip votes, that ballots could just not show up to be counted..that landfills will be found with tons of recent votes in them.. From everything I have seen, Obama is a head, but given enough mischief, this whole thing could be turned around...


God help us, to wake up the next morning to find Romney/Ryan in the White house. IT MUST NOT HAPPEN!!!

[marions ghost]

18. SO agree...

It Must Not Happen because if it does we know it is theft (again).

[locks]

14. In the Bush days

I was in Provence in 2004; the French were totally puzzled and dismayed that we re-elect Bush. When I said to a guide "I hope you will come visit New Orleans one day as it has so much French atmosphere" she said, "Oh no, we would be afraid to go to the US after this election; everyone hates us."

[NotThisTime]

15. I agree with you more than you know...

[valerief]

16. Even if they call it for Obama, I'm still not going to be satisfied until a couple weeks pass.

They might find a reason to uncall it and get the RW SCOTUS involved.

[Honeycombe8]

22. Me, too, Cyna. Me, too. "Waiting to exhale." nt

[tallahasseedem]

23. I haven't forgotten 2000.

Don't rest easy, GOTV!
