— Ace This is actually good advice for Republicans -- remember in 2000, all the networks, even Fox, called Florida before polls there were even closed.
The Republican-heavy Panhandle could vote until 8 PM Eastern, but the genius networks didn't know that, and insisted the polls shut down at 7 PM Eastern-- telling Republican voters in a densely-populated area of the state to not vote.
And then they compounded that by calling the state for Gore.
Telling Republicans the polls were closed when they were still open for another hour was one of the biggest dirty tricks played in the history of politics, and probably turned Florida from a clean Bush win into a very, very narrow, intensely disputed one.
In addition, claiming Bush had lost the election by 7 PM eastern undoubtedly poisoned the spirits of Republicans in more westerly states. And remember, that year, New Mexico was lost by Bush by something like a thousand total votes.
Wisconsin was also not called until the day after the election. People forget that. I did. I only know this because I spent last night reviewing the coverage of Election Night 2000.
While this is good advice, I have to wonder why Obama is offering it. Does he worry that early election day voting is going to go badly against him?
n a conference call this afternoon, President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign had one central message for their supporters when Election Day arrives tomorrow: They should “keep calm,” even if they hear snippets of information favoring Republican Mitt Romney.“My warning, we need to stay calm for much of the day,” Stephanie Cutter, Mr. Obama’s deputy campaign manager, said, touting thousands of early ballots already submitted by voters. “We’ve already banked a pretty big portion of our vote.”
The fear, she explained, was early numbers leaking before voters have finished going to the polls, creating unnecessary panic and pessimism among Democrats.
By the way, I just got back from making calls for Romney. The place was packed with volunteers. And the people I called were enthusiastic about voting.
It's still not too late to get in touch with a Romney campaign office tomorrow-- they need people poll watching and working the strike lists and making sure that our voters get to the polls.
As I said earlier, I think the plan is to have people at the polls marking each Republican who votes, and then relaying these lists back to HQ, where volunteers will viciously harass gently remind voters that they really have to get off their couches and take a simple action in defense of the nation.
This may depend on the local call center, but even if you can only devote an hour or two to the cause, they probably need it.
Plus, it's kind of fun.

If he thinks early voting will be bad tomorrow, just wait until 5 pm when all the Republicans get off work.

The Sixth of November
Remember, remember, this sixth of November,
The radicalsÂ’ treasonous plot.
I know of no reason the radicalsÂ’ treason
Should eÂ’er be forgivÂ’n or forgot.
The Sixties were waning, and Leftists were claiming
That radical changes were due.
Their Marxist solution was armed revolution:
The Weathermen made their debut.
The radicals raged on the national stage, and
Horrific explosions ensued.
Their bombs were dramatic, but also erratic;
They sometimes killed radicals, too.
The Leftists grew older, the underground, colder,
And so they came in from the cold.
“Subvert from within – in the long run, we’ll win,” said
The Leftists, determined and bold.
And thus it began – this nefarious plan – and
The radicals slowly took charge:
Complete infiltration of all education;
The long institutional march.
The journalist schools would produce useful fools, for
The Left would need media shills.
And Hollywood, too, would assist in the coup, with
Its slick propagandizing skills.
“Community action” would build a new faction;
Â’Twould organize proles on the street.
A smooth politician would front for the mission,
And run for the presidentÂ’s seat.
The radicalsÂ’ goal, which they proudly extol, is
A communist U.S. of A.
Collectivist schemes lead to brutal regimes, and
For this do the radicals pray.
But JeffersonÂ’s aim, with the charters he framed, was
To guard individual rights.
And “redistribution” was not a solution,
But one of the evils to fight.
So let us remember, this sixth of November,
Just what is at stake on this date.
Will JeffersonÂ’s dream, or the radicalsÂ’ scheme, now
Determine AmericaÂ’s fate?Posted by: Winslow at November 05, 2012 05:50 PM (JxASR)

Not asking about who I did intend to vote for was stupid.
ONE of the four calls asked me that.
I honestly answered "Romney".
Reply was "that's GREAT!".
If you're calling and not asking that question, I'm not sure what the hell data you're trying to collect.
Let me be more clear: If your call is pointless, fuck off.
My job over the last 4 days has been to keep the answering machine from filling up.
And I wish Pat Boone would be a live call. I'm totally sick of him.
(HINT: overkill can COST votes if the voter is truly undecided)

Virginia is going to be tight, tight as a tick. But we're going to take it. At the end of the day it isn't even going to be the upsurge of GOP votes in coal country that put us over the top so much as it will be crossover votes from moderate Dems/independents/swing voters in Northern Virginia. (Incidentally, that means you should look for George Allen to run behind Romney -- the Romney/Kaine voter is a very real thing in NoVA.)
Either way, I'm glad it'll all be over tomorrow. Enough! End! END!

Not just abc, all the networks, plus radio news during the breaks, they are going all out to protect their pravda credentials.
ps - the Odisaster campaign maybe trying a headfake "don't worry about bad exit polls", and then have their pravdas give them a good one.
Just vote and get another Mitt voter out.

From promoting Paul Ryan to presumptive leader of the GOP (in the event of either a loss OR a win), to organizing an ultra-competent campaign, to wiping the floor with Obama in the do-or-die first debate, to his inspirational close where he actually made this campaign about The Big Things instead of Obama's small-bore bullshit....Mitt Romney has been a guy who actually deserved our nomination, earned it, and has done us proud. It's all the more impressive given how much he was viewed with hatred and suspicion on many quarters of the Right for so long.
I tip my cap.

Used to be, the "goo-goo" types could look down their long, pince-nez'd noses at that kind of campaign, until the candidate debates got degraded, too. You can't go to the bar, if you have to drive home -- and if you do, nobody discusses issues since the talking point was invented. Even for those who want to work through platform ideas on a site like this, it's all "die in a fire." Yeah, it's what we've got, and we're lucky not to have worse, but the whole process is nothing to be proud of. GTG, working the polls right on the Lake Erie shore and have to be there by 0530.

I've had 2 of those.
I turned down the option to conference call with Paul Ryan.
Wife asked me why, and I told her I had absolutely zero questions or disagreements with him, and didn't want to waste his time. The only thing I would have been interested in was how many deer he'd scored with a bow, and what his technique was.
O-bots quit bothering me about 10 days ago.
I've had 4 door-to-door types with clipboards because my name is on the "unaffiliated" list.
I pointed out all the neighbors who are Obama, and who are toss-ups, and gave anecdotal data for the neighborhood and surrounding area, and made suggestions on where to try next (new residents, etc).
Ace can blow me if he thinks I don't care about this country.

I took today and tomorrow off to join the fight. Took #2 son to see Mitt and his band of brothers at the Patriot Center at GMU in Fairfax, Virgina. Traffic, parking, and lines to get in were a huge, happy mess, but the energy and enthusiasm was awesome. Mitt was simply fantastic - fresh, funny, and friendly. I don't know where he gets the energy, but he certainly brought it.
It will be nice having a Good Man back in the White House.
Stay Turgid, Morons.

Never stopped.
You know, just watching CNN and CBC here and there during the day and FoxNews later at night, I really think Romney's going to win big. Maybe it's the anger coming out of President Dumbass, the enthusiasm that's showing up for Romney in the crowds, the Obama crowds appearing almost as if they were bused in, reports on CBC interviewing many Obama people from 2008 who are now voting for Romney, MFM reporters seeming kind of nervous or maybe it's just the beer I bought for tomorrow that I've started killing now.
What does scare me is how an election in America with someone like Obama, after 4 years of the suffering he's inflicted on America, the bungling, the anti American-exceptionalism, the debt - how the hell is this even close?
If anything, I think tomorrow's results will show percentage wise, just how polluted, stupid, corrupt, socialist, whatever America has become. Those will be Obama voters. There is no compromise anymore. Metaphorically (?), they want to kill 2 babies, we want to kill none. How do you compromise with that?
But for now, I'm going to save beer for tomorrow. I want to find an MSNBC election stream and hopefully see some 'journalists' off themselves on-air. And if Hollywood were to film a chunk of 'celebrities' doing the same, I'll pay for the DVD.

I was phone banking in 2004 and everyone was irritated about being called yet again. I go lots of "can't you get me off the list, I'm tired of the phone ringing".
And 2004 was the best turnout that the GOP has ever had.

Awhile back I read some article quoting Cutter as saying after the campaign she wanted to return home, go back into private industry I think. I don't remember exactly how it was worded, but I got the impression she might be fed up with having to non-stop lie and spin for Obama. For about a half a second I almost had sympathy for her.
Maybe underneath the layers of Obama slime, a semi rational person lurks. She was actually caught telling the truth once, admitting to something the campaign was desperately trying to spin away. The "keep calm" thing seems similar, perhaps a little honesty leaking out.

I think you're missing something here
we all thought this would be a political thing, when in fact Berman is pretty much keeping it AWAY from politics
That said, Romney came off better- talked about the Pats, the Sox, the Olympics, drugs in sports- also, he wore a dress shirt and tie
Obama did not- plus, true to form, he said 'uh uh uh' a lot
advantage MITT
Posted by: Jones in CO at November 05, 2012 06:17 PM (8sCoq)
Actually, Obama came across as being kind of flat, and Mitt seemed much sharper and on point.
Mitt has to be exhausted and is 15 years older than Obama, yet he is the Energizer Bunny of campaigners.

#5--yep, all day my radio station that carries Hannity and Levin, were touting their "Obama up 3, finally breaking the tie" which came from their ABC/WaPost poll. They also played snippets from Barry's rally with no corresponding snippet from a Romney rally nor any mention of the Gallup or Rasmussen polls.
Bastards. I tell ya, the Tea Party goes after fiscal responsibility and every single one of us disgusted with the media have to make them our next target and we can't let up until journalistic integrity is on the front burner, and that means we have to call out people BY NAME and BY PROGRAM and we can start with Steve Kroft and his producer, and CBS for not releasing until 2 days before an election the whole interview Kroft did with POTUS weeks ago on Benghazi. Even after the second debate, they didn't release the edit that would have shown Romney was right for attacking POTUS, would have shown POTUS' lie, would have revealed Ms Crowley as a hack. OF course, Kroft is a hack too. Let's get 'em! No democracy can survive with a media like this, people pretending to be hard news reporters. Bastards.
Then, we get on the damn pollsters for being in bed with the media.

I think there's going to be some early internal exit polls and anecdotal evidence of the Landslide that will send some Dems into crisis mode. The brain can only maintain a delusion for so long and that time varies between individuals.
I wouldn't be surprised to see some Dems on the ledge by noon EST. So it's in their interests to say "Stay Calm" because panic like that can spread fast.

Wow, I hope we pull this off: This is the second time today I've heard Reince Priebus on Fox, this time on Great, telling people, quite confidently, that by "11pm, and 10 Central" you'll be able to hear Mitt Romney named your next President.
I can't help but recall the Bush-Gore thing and the Bush-Kerry thing, but by gosh, this Reince guy sure seems happy and confident.
I've heard vague references to the POTUS' rallies today, but no one said what his mood seemed like. How about Romney today?(I stress today because I saw stuff on their moods yesterday, but every day these guys' pollsters do internals and as I read, they pay a lot more money to their pollsters to get exact info that guys like Rasmussen and Gallup just can't get.)
Mitt will be in Pittsburgh tomorrow, which reaches three states.
Posted by: gayle from California at November 05, 2012 06:30 PM (wgmUB)
It is not a mystery. Mitt is a successful man married to a lovely, warm, gracious woman, who is the love of his life. They have 5 handsome sons, a gaggle of gorgeous grandkids, and faith. He has it all. Even if he does not win the Presidency, he still has it all.
Barack Obama is married to an ugly, awkward, gawky, angry, selfish, ill-mannered, shrewish woman. In unguarded moments you can tell they barely tolerate each other. They were scrubbed from the Internet, but, there used to be photos of him with Reggie Love sitting in the Presidential limo--Obama is leaning into Reggie and his face is glowing with love--maybe it was brotherly love. But, if he was the first Gay President, he stayed deep in that closet. He always looks awkward with his daughters--whom he called sons on more than one occasion. He hides his true faith.

Longest month I ever spent was the Florida Recall. It ruined Thanksgiving, nearly ruined Christmas, and I lost 10 pounds because I was so upset all I did was chain smoke and drink coffee!
On the plus side, my grandson, who was then 4 years old, learned to read the word "Bush", as I had a bunper sticker on my car and kept my sign in my yard even as the snow fell!
My grandchildren, whom I watched for 10 years until they were old enough to stay by themselves, are ALL conservatives! Grandma wasn't above telling them the straight scoop!

It ain't close. Their only hope is to have the media demoralize western voters. The hell with them. Don't even watch the news tomorrow.

In general, I agree, although I live in "east county" Boulder. Jeffco is not a given. Nor is the SE part of the state. This will be a "two percent" thing.

No, Count, you really don't . . . it's a trap!!! But I have to say, I love the fact that they are bullshitting their base into staying home. Lazy fuckers, all of 'em, they will read that and think their vote is not desperately needed. All good.

Anybody worried about CO, dont. Boulder county is what it is, Denver county is a push, Jeffco, Adams, Arapahoe will go Romney, Douglas and El Paso strong R as always, the rest of the State is RED.
Don't forget Pueblo. That's blue. I still think CO goes Romney.

"And now Barack Obama on halftime talking to Chris "Leather" Berman."
Can't stand either one of them. What can Berman ask?
Is Mitt being interviewed?

I keep thinking all Obama's entertainment appearances might finally have reached a tipping point where people say, "I want a President, not an entertainer who jokes around."
Let me guess? He's talking about the storm, right, and it's victims, right? I don't have to turn it on to know that. Bastard.

F((( Steve Croft, too. Sitting on that quote. How do we break up the vast circle jerk that is the media? They made a superstar out of Cindy Sheehan but won't give the father of the guy killed in Libya the time of day.

* Scott Brown
* Mitt Romney
* Worker's rights
* Chris Christie
* OR, AZ, PA shenanigans
* Dana Perino
* Open Thread/Will Ferrell
* Kos predictions (it's an O landslide!)

...looks like they are desperate to think about anything but Bronco Bama.

I mentioned that the most effective "Superstorm Sandy" relief team, so far, has been Mormon groups.
She smiled. I think I know who she voted for.

That sucks, vivi. I had a similar experience in the Bush v ManBearPig election. Really good friend wrote me a letter and offended my ass to the point that I cut her loose. I still think about it, after all these years, but I wouldn't have changed my reaction. Never even addressed it, just faded away on her sorry ass.

he's not building shit . . . Penny Pritzker is buying him some prime real estate. I hope he and the upholstered one are already packing. We're gonna need some extra time to fumigate the place before we let Ann move in.

I'm new to this whole AoS thing, and I was not a particularly enthusiastic Romney supporter during the Spring and early Summer. It was always anybody but the socialist JEG. Then, "Mittens" turned out to be so much more.
Besides being a winner! A#1, un-ashamed, Capitalist, I see his kids, I've seen the way he looks at Anne, and I've heard about what a Dudley-Do-Right HE REALLY IS (even when nobody's looking)! And, I am a huge fan of the Winter Olympic games.
I was thinking that Perry was gonna' be the deal. Epic Fail. I love Newt, as a politician -- but he's such a douche as a man.
Santorum? - the MFM would have made him in a puddle by now.
In the end, who do you really want on your "6"?
One of the other pretenders, The Current FG, -- or the last-man-standing (BECAUSE he's the right-stuff) Eagle Scout!
So, yeah, I guess I am admitting to myself, I do have a little man-crush on Willard and teh Ace.

Yes it is.I live here and do a lot of research. There are blue spots scattered around the State for sure, and where you are at is away from ground zero libville by a few miles which will add some to Romney. R takes Co easily.
In general, I agree, although I live in "east county" Boulder. Jeffco is not a given. Nor is the SE part of the state. This will be a "two percent" thing.

Aren't there a lot of evangelicals in VA? I surely hope they turn out as people want them to.
Posted by: gayle from California at November 05, 2012 10:33 PM (wgmUB)
Yes there are. Jonathan Falwell, son of Jerry, and the Chancellor of Liberty University, has been a big backer of Mitt. Back in May he had Mitt deliver the graduation address at Liberty, and then put a picture of that on Liberty's "magazine" that is inserted into every Virginia newspaper. It was a not so subtle message to evangelicals that it is fine to vote for Mitt.
Plus Franklin Graham, son of Billy, has been a big backer. Again, that is a not so subtle message that they want evangelicals to vote for him.
The wife of our very conservative Presbyterian minister was very excited to talk about this election with us.
Evangelicals will vote for Mitt, and will come out strong for him.

Please God, hear our prayers. Show mercy on this country even if we don't deserve it, we will not forget.
Pray. Vote. Pray.
Take care, moron's and 'ettes. Hopefully by this time tomorrow we will have a new President. And I think President Romney and VP Ryan are going to be an awesome team...but we have to keep working. We celebrate Wed then we go to work.
Do this. Finish him, Sir Barky, Won and Done.

I am coming down with a cold, which kept me from going to the Ryan rally tonight. I wanted so much to go that I considered dragging my ass there, but then I thought I don't want to get any other GOP voters sick. I don't care how I feel tomorrow morning, I will be at the polls at 6:40 (they open at 7 here). I live in a lib neighborhood. I'm hoping there will not be a line, but you never know...
Good night, and God help us, let's win this thing tomorrow.
