[Speed of Sound]

Im officially switching over to McCain by 3 points.

[auburntiger]

MaCain by a point is still my call.

Yep, mine too

MSNBC is releasing exit polls....47% think the econmy is the most important...with the war on terror coming in last at 13%.

69% of conservatives voted absentee, 46% were the elderly

Romney should do pretty well if those numbers are accurate.

The economy number seems to favor romney...not quite sure about the large number of conservatives voting absentee or elderly voting absentee favors him though...

But if Romney thinks he only needs 2-3% going into today to win and all of those conservatives and elderly already voted, that may be a positive.

Considering the numbers, it is way too early to be predicting anything, at present.  The numbers are way too close.  Moreover, I still don't buy this 2%-3% rumor - we'll see if it turns out to be right.  And once again, I don't trust exit polls, though they've been ok so far this year, for the most part.

Key area to examine is the Tampa-St. Pete area.  Hopefully, I'll be around there.

I think it will be the conservative panhandle.

If it's announce by 8:30 PM, it's a win for whomever.

The Panhandle is a mix of young military evangelical conservatives mixed together.....so it all goes well with Huckabee and McCain but not really Romney.

Some of Huckabee's supporters might be voting strategically.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I'm hoping Mitt's talk about 2-3% was just an attempt to boost turnout. You never want to overstate your position.

But yeah, he better win this. If he loses it then McCain might as well have it wrapped up. McCain will even lead in delegates for the first time.

If only we could really trust exit polls.  Maybe we can this time, but I'm still leery.

Uh oh. Mitt's Last Stand?

Intrade has McCain as a 70-30 favorite.  looks like it's over.

[Mr. Morden]

A handful of votes have come out on the Dem. side:

Terrible news for Mitt. In the SurveyUSA poll that had the race tied, Mitt beat McCain on the economy 40%-29%. 

I might as well make my election prediction now. McCain will win by a 6% margin.

[Mr. Morden]

And some GOP results too.  Romney leading by 3%, but just a handful of votes out.

[Lief 🗽]

EDWARDS!

Maybe, but you know the MOE on those sorts of things.  Hard to extrapolate, IMHO.

Sell McCain, it's overpriced.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Some of the early voters are in the results now. Giuliani with 17% and in fourth of those. Not good for him at all.

[Torie]

It is just a wild guess, based on all of the tea leaves. The Hispanic numbers moved too.
