    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

      Hey, I wasn't the one comparing this to 2000.

      And besides, as i said, not everyone who comes out of the polls will actually have their vote counted. Hell, this elps Republicans more than Demos. That just the truth.

          Any exit polls now are silly, since the bulk of voting happens after 5 PM when people get off of work. Plus, in races as close as today's, the importance of absentee ballots will be heightened.

            Not at all, just showing what i think of Mister Drudge in general. I am surprised to see him around as much- haven't seen the man on TV since Clinton left.

            Hey Boris: who would you pick for Comptroller: Hevesi of Faso?

              Hey! Stop knocking exit polls. I've got to get my fix some way!
              I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                  GP: Hevesi, hands down. He would actually know what he's doing.

                  Drudge has had several innaccuracies before, so don't take his word for it. In 2000, several of his exit poll predictions ended up with very different results (such as Bush winning the popular vote).

                    Early results are just that, early results, and Drudge makes it clear that that is what he's reporting. I see no problem with it.

                      Well I'm off to vote and work the polls to support Spear Lancaster, Libertarian candidate for Maryland Governor. Screw off KKT and Ehrlich both.

                        It is hard to predict until I can see who is stuffing the ballot box. Traditionally it has been the Democrats so they have a good chance of retaining control of the Senate.

                          My predictions:

                          The democrats will lose control of the Senate, and the Republicans will build their majority in the House. I don't want to provide numbers but that is what I think...
                          For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                            Off to vote.

                            Predicting Townsend over Ehrlich for MD Governor
                            Van Hollen over Morella for MD 8th

                            Voting the opposite of the predictions.

                              Hmmm.... Heavy turnout in the Maryland (generally liberal) suburbs, even though it's raining pretty hard.

                              In DC, I voted Williams (D), Norton (D), Katana (R). Left the Shadow Senator and Shadow Rep blank over principle. Did not vote for any other Dems, including those running unopposed, over principle.

                              Voted no on the drug rehab over jail issue
                              Voted no on the elected district attorney

                              The Green/Statehood party had a more complete slate than the GOP.

                                See, I stand by my KKT prediction.

                                The Voter News Service is scrapping its exit polling due to technical difficulties. News may be a longtime coming.
