There is a wooshing sound effect that they are playing as they scroll thru the state updates and for some reason he decided that one of his give and takes with another anouncer should have the same sound effect so he started making the news himself. Even the guy he was talking to was looking at him as if he had lost it.

I like my Katie Couric, she is the hottest of the hot. Always has been, and always will be.

President Bush... the only true choice for more failed policies.
This long time republican is voting for John Kerry!

Nero - Brit is the head cheese on Fox. He gets so frustrated when there are no results for a state and even more so when he has to say that they are unable to call a state where there is a Bush lead showing. He keeps saying "We'll have to ask (insert name here) on why we can't call that one..."and you can just see him holding back an utterance of "...and kill him!"
I've already been asked why I am glued to Fox tonight and told them that Brit's head is going to explode tonight and I want to be watching live when it does 
As for Katie - Yes, I hate the Gidget wannabe with an absolute passion but I really like Ann and Matt so I put up with her plasticene existance and wait for the day when some one sitting in the interview chair listening to her diatribes disguised as questions just looks at her and say "Do you actually want to interview me or am I supposed to just sit here and be your straight man?" Someday someone will do it, I have faith! The other reason I watch NBC in the AM is that it's on longer and if my choice is Judge Judy or the Today Show, I'm going with the Today Show every time

Hume needs to cut back on the xanax dosage.
But get this --- at 12:41AM FOX and Hume called Ohio for Bush, with Bush at a 140,000 vote lead. That lead has now shrunk to 103,000 with 14% of the precincts left to go.
MSNBC claims that Cleveland with kick in at least 190,000 more votes to Kerry.
Let's see if FOX removes Ohio from the Bush camp.

Reamond - wouldn't it be ironic if Ohio truly does become the Florida of 2004 with a call made too early? That 40K vote lead came by way of4% of the votes. Most ironic would be that if Ohio gets flipped and Kerry takes it, he would win the electorial but not the popular.
If it gets much closer, they are going to call for a recount in Ohio since there are at least 200K uncounted provisional and I believe they said absentee ballots.

There were still lines in Columbus and Cleveland and Stark county Ohio until late tonight. A federal judge ordered that those in line be given a paper ballot so they could get there vote cast and leave. They said people in Stark county had been in line for 9 hours.
Cleveland and Columbus proper are both democratic regions.
Stark county is where the Timken plant closed and moved to Mexico so that county may go for Kerry too.
Ohio could yet be either a re-count margin or swing to Kerry.
The Fox guys got a worried look on their faces when Bush's lead dropped by 37,000.

I ws going to try to get a little sleep since I got none last night but this is just crazy - I'm hanging in till the end. I think CNN is the only one that has not called Ohio yet.

It was reported there are an estimated 24,000 provisional ballots in Cuyahoga county that have not been counted, and an estimated 200,000 total provisionals in Ohio.
The question now is how many of them are Kerry votes, some say nearly all will be Kerry votes, others say they will run 50/50, and is 200,000 a good estimate of the total ?
A 1% margin will demand a recount.
Here we go again.

I can't believe that Fox has been ignoring Nevada - that see saw has been a blast to watch. Everytime I refresh the page the leader changes.

Guess what Reamond, you're wrong, I believe that in Ohio it takes a 0.25% margin for a recount and a recount and a recount and a recount and a recount.

According to Ohio state law it is the 1/4 of 1% but as close as this is, there is going to be a recount with all of the provisionals and uncounted absentees. Ohio is a deciding element - with the current count, neither will have a win without it.

Fenix...ah..knew it had to be a Matt Lauer love affair for you to tolerate katie...
Well, its 6:29 am here. CNN is saying there is a possiblity of Kerry pulling in Ohio and that would give him the election, but they wont know for days. Sheesh! How DID people have a regular vote for 200 years before all this electronic jibby-jabbing and masterminding? Blows my mind!
Where is Cheryl - has she got any pull in putting the fat lady to sing in Ohio?
*Hey Sparkz, Hillary is not a REAL blond ya know.......
I am kinda mad Bush wont speak to his supporters who stayed up all night. They did all this for him and he wont come and speak to them? Thats not right. He should at least get out there and say something....
