Carville just conceded that Bush has a significant advantage on CNN. CARVILLE.

Meanwhile, Novak is getting in some gloats. And Begala is getting pissy.

Daily Show basically said Bush was going to win too
For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,
Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be;
Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight dropping down with costly bales;
Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rain'd a ghastly dew
From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue;

Fuck. FUCK FUCK FUCK. Well, if Kerry takes all those states in the vicinity of Ohio, he might have a shot.

If Bush keeps both Florida and Ohio, Kerry can still win, but only if he keeps all four northern Midwest states and New Mexico, and picks up both New Hampshire and Nevada.

Current standings of those states:

New Hampshire: Kerry 50-49, 76% reporting
Nevada: Kerry 50-48, 4% reporting

New Mexico: Bush 51-48, 64% reporting
Wisconsin: Kerry 50-49, 49% reporting
Iowa: Kerry 51-49, 61% reporting
Michigan: Kerry 51-48, 40% reporting
Minnesota: Kerry 54-45, 52% reporting

Minnesota can most likely be called for Kerry at this point, but the other six are all up in the air.

Even more recent update:

Ohio:

74% reporting.

Bush up by less than 120,000. Kerry's making a bit of a comeback.

Here's what I'm wondering. Is this counting the early and absentee ballots?

I believe most of those don't get counted until almost a week later, or such.

It's all Ohio now. CNN just did a projection. If Kerry loses Ohio it is almost impossible for him to win as this election is essentially 2000 v.2.0

Alright. CNN finally got around to calling FLA for Bush. I guess they were worried about what happened last time.

Edit: Sorry. Little late, there.

Things looking very good from my side of things. However, that one county in Ohio could make things interesting.

CNN's web coverage, I'd assume.

The way I understand it, if the margin is large enough to cover a majority of absentee ballots then it is called.
