here's hoping the new AG's first order of business is to send Jeb and everyone who works for him to Leavenworth

2. No, it's not in play.
Kerry has won. I couldn't even vote today. The line was too long. I'll get up at 5:30 am tomorrow and line up an hour before the polls open. With a turnout this high, Democrats win every time.

Kerry will carry FL and Bush will lose badly next Tuesday.

4. Will do.
I'm pumped! I'm 47 and have voted in every election that I was eligible to vote in since 1976, and I have *never* seen anything like this.

8. Lines are that long for Early Voting? WOW!
Is that typical all over Florida?
Turnout, turnout, turnout.
I just returned from Voter Protection training and that is the whole thing, Turnout.
I voted early here in Ohio the other day, had to wait 5 minutes, just a steady stream keeping them busy.
Democrats always win when the voter turnout is high!
Keep us informed about your experience.

9. I don't know about all of FL
Someone here at DU linked to an article that 2 million Floridians will vote early - or about 20% of registered voters. So, I don't know if this is happening everywhere, but it's happening in a lot of places. Hopefully, the Dem heavy areas - like my county. :)

5. It's a toss-up.
FL will be very close, but it won't matter. Kerry will win Tuesday night, and FL will be doing recounts.

6. I do and I am on the ground in one of the most
repug parts of the state. Just today, I saw as many Kerry bumper stickers as * stickers. In 2000, this area went at least 70% for *

10. All the battleground states are in play
and most will go to Kerry. Right now, BushCo has an army of Spinsters out in the media trying to make it look like there is a sudden surge for Bush in these states in the last couple of days. It's all Bull Crap.

They know Kerry has a much better local ground operation to GOTV and have an advantage with the large group of newly registered voters in this election.

None of this is captured in the polls, and there is good reason for the nervousness in the Bush Camp. They know the polls are overstating Smirk's vote.

Kerry is looking very good right now and in fact is doing better than Gore was at this time in the 2000 election. For what it is worth.

If we all hang in there, work our A$$es off to GOTV, Kerry will win easily.
