That's amusing, because National Review's Jim Geraghty reports that the
Bush people are saying that the have OH and FL in the bag... (which is
tantamount to a win.)
I will say that based on the delay in calling VA, NC, and SC!!!! I would be
really, really, really nervous right now if it weren't for WV getting
called so quickly.

P.S. I will also point out that my final prediction had Bush winning
without OH, so so much for Novak! ;-)
