Okay, Now It Gets Serious

John Fund has predictions and counsel.

He's also got the times of poll-closings, some of which I repost here:

G= Gubernatorial race; S = Senatorial race; #= electors

6 p.m.

Indiana 11 GS
Kentucky 8 S

As Fund says, somewhat obviously, we know which way these states are voting, but the important thing is whether Bush does better now than he did in 2000.

7 p.m.


New Hampshire 4 GS
Virginia 13

7:30 p.m.

Ohio 20 S
West Virginia 5 G

Ohio, Ohio, Ohio. Don't expect a result early.

8 p.m.

Florida 27 S
Michigan 17
Missouri 11 GS
New Jersey 15
Pennsylvania 21 S

Florida, Florida, Florida. 8 o'clock should tell us who our President will be.

9 p.m.

Arizona 10 S
Colorado 9 S
Minnesota 10
New Mexico 5
Wisconsin 10 S

9 pm should seal the deal.

Well, that's enough for now. You can read Fund's article for the rest. He tells you what you should be looking for each round of poll-closings.

Any idea where MegaPundit got the number on New Hampshire?

Posted by: Dear Johns on November 2, 2004 05:38 PM

Could just be the votes from Dixville Notch, you know, the morons who voted 12:01AM last night.

Good catch on Dixville...And very thorough on the part of MegaPundit.

What's with Zogby? Have the rays of sunlight reached the final corner of the room the vampire is hiding in? Ok, did I stretch that metaphor a
bit?

Posted by: Dear Johns on November 2, 2004 05:51 PM

Ace, I trust this afternoon's BS has inoculated you from more premature hysteria.

Posted by: someone on November 2, 2004 05:53 PM

ZOGBY!!!!

In other words,

TIMMY!!!!!

Am I wrong? Don't the polls in Florida close at 9 o'clock EST? The panhandle is in the central time zone - wasn't that what caused all the shit in 2000? I am on my second six-pack so forgive me if I am babbling.

Ace--

I need your counsel.

Is Renee Zellwegger attractive?

Or, more importantly, is she attractive when she's packing the peanut butter, as in all the commercials running on MSNBC for Bridget Jones 2?

I'm worried that I'm finding her attractive. Either that makes me gay-- not that there's anything wrong with that-- or in desperate need of some hot and heavy Kim Richards actions.

HELP ME, ACE-- you're my only hope.

Cheers,
Dave

Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on November 2, 2004 06:07 PM

Actually, I *only* have ever thought she was attractive in Bridget Jones.

The guys at Powerline say an unscienetific AOL survey is 57-41 Bush. That's more like it.

Oh, phooey on unscientific internet surveys. To be completely honest, I'm tired of hearing about such nonsense.

Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 06:30 PM

No offense meant! But I read FR a lot, and every other post is about this or that stupid meaningless internet survey.

Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 06:31 PM

Ace--

Thanks. Glad to know we share the same opinion.

Do you do any financial planning as well?

Cheers,
Dave

Now, Jenilee Harrison - back in the day... when she first replaced Suzanne Sommers? Oh dear. I lived to see her come on screen in a tight fuzzy sweater.

But have you seen here recently on that ronco chopparizer infomercial. Dude, was she abducted by aliens or something???

Posted by: spanky on November 2, 2004 06:41 PM

Ok, this is all definitely getting to you if you're having difficulty determining whether Renee Zellwegger is hot. Just picture her making those little faces.

Yes. She's hot.

Posted by: Dear Johns on November 2, 2004 06:51 PM

Nurse Betty. Renee in a nurses uniform. Very hot

Posted by: on November 2, 2004 06:58 PM

Hey, it's a stressful day. Things are going wacko right now in my head.

BTW, Ace-- if you want to give any shout outs, I'd love one tonight. I'm on a blogging tear right now.

Okay, granted, I'm not really *saying* anything right now, but the news is still coming in, ya know?

Thanks,
Dave
