Based on what I saw here during the 2004 campaign, the only people I saw doubting that their candidate would win Boss Tweed (Democrat) and the infamous mypalfish (Republican, maybe). I'm sure there was someone here or there who thought their candidate might lose from time to time, but these were the only two consistent ones.
I always predicted around a 2-4 point Bush win and for once in my life I was actually right on something.
I will admit that I thought the election could be a nailbiter after the Dem Convention and before the 1st debate, I thought Bush might win by 5-7 points if he defeated Kerry in the first debate, but otherwise that was always my prediction.
Not true. I had very severe doubts at some points.
