Fox Exit Poll data = Obama WINS OHIO (though that's not how they spin it)
Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 05:53 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
FOX is trotting out only the exit poll numbers (raw and unreliable) that they think favor McCain, but one line of McCain's "leads" jumps off the page...

McCain winning WHITE MEN in OHIO by 4%. (51%-47%)

Folks, if that unadjusted result was accurate and McCain is winning white men narrowly on election day in Ohio then Obama wins Ohio in a walk.

And, near as I can tell, there's no way McCain could win without Ohio.

5. Didn't we go through this already once...
...in 2004?

Ignore the mostly-worthless exit polls, and GOTV!
