PBS pol saying it is irresponsible to call Ohio
right now. it is trending toward * but it is way too close and an impending lawsuit throws it up for grabs.

1. So did CBS.
They said they would rather be late than wrong even if Rove called it for Bush.

2. Good
We need to send emails thanking them. The media will not hand this to * again. We can do something. PBS pol also said MM was out there with cameras and we haven't heard from him yet.

We need to boycott FOXnews, CNN, ABCnews, NBCNews and their sponsers until they stop being tools of rightwing. Praise and thanks to those that deserve it but don't give an inch to them that don't

3. It is illegal in some countries for the media to do this.
It should be on the Kerry agenda of things to fix.

Just like 2000. Let's consider it "Florida North" - the nets call it in the air, and it comes back to bite them in the butt. This is going to the courts, and it will get ugly. Mark my words.

MI, MN, WI, IA, and NM are solidly in Kerry's column, HI (traditionally Dem) and NV (Kerry's up) would be good bets as well. DON'T concede until everyone is fairly counted.

6. AGREED. CBS's pundit even said Repubs try to convince people
they won even when their own internals indicate nothing is wrapped up.
