I doubt it. The East Cupcake Pennysaver may be worried about blowback, but the media whose calls we care about are well enough established to withstand whatever grief they'd get, or are getting for waiting. I think this is the residue of 2000. No doubt stringent standards were put into place to make sure that no calls are made prematurely; the penalty for being wrong is much greater than the reward for being the first to be right. And no matter what any news organization reports, or any candidate claims, nothing is official until the states release their final totals, whenever that may be. Meantime, the reporting is out there for us to draw our own conclusions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
