There's still a slim chance of a Kerry win

As discussed in other thread, Kerry may win CO (only 33% of Boulder reporting... extrapolating current results there, it would result in a narrow Kerry victory). If Kerry also picks up NM and IA (unlikely, but those states still too close to call), he wins...

2. I see Iowa with 100% reporting... is it over there?

The chimp has a slim lead there. Thought there was some problem with the machines, but it now says 100% reporting, so I don't know...

4. that's 100% of precincts reporting election day voting
One third of the ballots cast in Iowa were early votes that still haven't been counted completely. they are not reported by precinct.

So 100% just means 100% of the votes cast yesterday (Tuesday).

3. c'mon man
you are being too hard on him. Shit, the deck is stacked against him in the Supreme Court, he knows that, and I really think there is more to this than meets the eye. I'm not talking about the pro-Kerry exit polls and then the "actual" vote count, or the electronic machines, or the fact that Cheney said, "They have the people, we have the votes", or the fact that that numbers are just not adding up right now.

He got the "word"...to fucking cool it. I'm surprised they didn't shoot him months ago.

I don't mean to strike a match of paranoia here, but we will never know all the facts, so much goes on behind the scenes .

Did you ever stop for just a second and think that maybe, just maybe, he was threatened,his family was threatened,

or, the American people were threatened?

I believe it is a possibility, would not put ANYTHING past those SOB's.

But, fuck it, we went out tonight & wore our Kerry buttons, and the godamned bumper stickers stay on the cars.

I love John Kerry.

Love him.

5. Yeah, I gotta admit it, I do too.
I was mad as hell at him yesterday, but I have cooled some and am giving him the benefit of the doubt. Something for sure happened. Will we ever know?

6. I gave all I had to give supporting him
I still say he quit early

if he was threatened, he should speak up and expose whoever is doing it

as much as I despise the bushgang, I don't think he was threatened into conceding.

Did the Red Sox decide after game three with the yankees that the series was "stacked against them"?

he said he would fight for us. he said he woudl fight until the last vote was counted.

he didn't. they are still counting votes all over the country. millions of them.

i don't think he could win, but he could have waited until he officially lost before he quit.
