MSNBC has a terrific election site that gives you an interactive electoral college predictor, streaming video from the various NBC news properties, and updated commentary from the on-air personalities. I think HardBlogger, and in particular Keith Olbermann, has been pretty good the past couple weeks.
For the record, here’s my Electoral College prediction, pretty map courtesy of the MSNBC flash widget that lets you pick who wins what:
Rick, you might go ahead and paint all those states blue given the current illegal voter registrations, violent voter intimidation and other questionable practices being launched nationwide.
ReplyDeleteBush wins Florida but Kerry wins New Mexico, Wisconsin and Nevada.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise... you are correct!
Come on Jason. To suggest it's one-sided and we'll just walk away with the election is pathetic. This is going on by both parties, a truly sorry state of affairs.
ReplyDeleteAnd Bush/Cheney has taken the rally to new heights: now you have to write an essay indicating your support of the president, and promise to vote for him in order to get access to his events.
I'm not excusing/justifying/endorsing the allegations of interference with the process you link to above. But let's be fair: this is a bi-partisan disaster. And for Republicans to complain about a practice they're equally culpable in is disingenuous (to say the least). I'd be much more likely to listen to your complaints if you would at least acknowledge as much.
Rick, Rick, Rick.... please tell me you didn't just support your argument by citing Daily "Screw Them" Kos. I'm highly disapointed.
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, that article Kos refers to has this little tidbit within it:
"The I-Team has obtained information about an alleged widespread pattern of potential registration fraud aimed at democrats. Thee focus of the story is a private registration company called Voters Outreach of America, AKA America Votes."
