Seeing a lotta gloom and doom on the friendslist...

Hey folks, it ain't over till the fat lady sings.

ETA: Ohio is not called yet, for very good reason. The polls that had to remain open late were in the heavily Democratic north. That's where the flood of people were who stood in line for 9 hours to vote. Those are the votes that haven't been counted.

It's similar to Pennsylvania, which leaned Bush as the lower population outer counties were counted, but swung back to Kerry once Philadelphia was counted.

I like your optimism, but this is Ohio. I live here. It is very probably going to Bush because people here are very, very proud of their ignorance. My mother has been saying that for years and now I'm thinking of believing it. Ohio is a very bad state to hang your hopes on.

Sorry. Am entirely depressed over this affair. I had more hope last time with Florida than this time with my state.
