4. Skewed election coverage

NBC - talked as if the top three in Washington are Kerry, Edwards, Clark when it looks like it's Kerry, Dean, Kucinich.

Dean painted as though he is not going anywhere. Kucinich not even mentioned once.

6. I know, total crap.

The news ain't the news.

5. It's the AP/CNN projection.

Probably true, but never written in stone until after the votes are actually counted.
