    Man, 77/77. Has the race in this thread been this tight all of the time?
    Kerry was leading the whole time until this weekend, when Bush took the lead.

    Now it's tied again.

      We appear to be a microcosm of the nation in general.

        Kerry on NBC news has said he has up to 10,000 lawyers ready to go. Sounds a bit unreal to me. Personally, I believe both sides are ready to go to court regardless of the outcome.

          • The stakes are high. Neither side will back down.

              • I've heard that said before. I don't think so but I also don't underestimate most other people's stupidity.

                • Kerry 283 Bush 246 at the moment, though msot of the states that moved the other way in this place are still too close to really call. NJ seems to be firmly Kerry again though.

                  EDIT the pic seems to have disappeared.

                      Absolutely not. You may see protest, etc. but not Civil War. Mainly because the military would never support it. I feel the emotions involved are no more than those in a heated sport rivalry.

                      Come Wednesday morning, I'll wake up and run with two friends who are ardent Democrats. Of course, I'll sponsor them for their continued freedom and sign their travel papers. Or, they'll make me wear a dress and protest unfair treatment of gays.

                          Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                            I'd note that the latest Gallup poll has Kerry ahead in Ohio, and the Zogby from yesterday had Bush ahead (probably why it is red there). However, both of those are a fairly large change from the consistent tied game of the 5+ days previous. It is likely that Ohio is still 'tied' and that the polls showing that not the case are just a bit off because of random error issues.

                            Of course, it is not unreasonable to expect most places that are tied to go to Kerry.

                              No, because the military would go on the side of the elections; they aren't going to split over this.

                              Despite what the gun lobby might say, their guns can't be used to effectively resist the military.
