I suspect Bush will edge it out, but not by much. I think most swing voters would love to vote against Bush, but, when it comes down to it, will consider switching horses in mid stream too risky, particularly given that Kerry has only recently become clear about where he stand on a lot of the foreign policy issues, and "clear" is an arguable description. Or: I think it will be a one issue race, and Bush will "win" that issue based largely on a "devil you know" rationalle. I would not be surprised to be cataclysmically wrong.
Personally, my only wish is that it be decisive in each state, but I depressingly fear it is not to be. And I really fear that, even if it is fairly decisive, that won't stop our fellow lawyers from trying to fuck it up. I want it over Nov 3, but predict it will be over about Dec. 15th. The Supreme Court will refuse to hear any cases.

The bolded part is the only thing I can agree with you about. |

I agree with you. But I was wrong about this before.

Based on gut and a map, almost a mirror image.
Kerry 289 - Bush 249.
Any significance behind the original date, clubby?
One way or the other, I hope it doesn't result in a replay of 2000, but with everybody girded for it, I think it's unavoidable. I'm afraid Ohio and Florida are going to be the center of it all -- maybe Pennsylvania too.
and November, 2008.

That would be me, hedging my bets. If Kerry wins, no federal legislation at all will be passed and signed for the next 4 years, giving us, in effect, libertarian uber-limited government by default.
Actually, I just had to give the poor guy a boost in my own, small way. I mean, he's on every ballot and he probably still won't pull as many votes as Nader.
Vote early, and vote often!

At the wire
she posts her prediction.
Kerry with 2.5 percent of the popular vote, and at least 280 electoral college votes.

Zogby is now predicting 311 for Kerry, with Nevada and Colorado too close to call. |
