[lbo-talk] No, actually, I don't believe it.

I was following CNN on-line, and I noticed they had an exit poll that clearly indicated Kerry would win. Close, but there was a solid gender gap, solid black voting for Kerry, and weak white male voting for Bush. I sent the URL around to some friends. Then, I went back to check the thing, and I swear the results were changed. I wish I had saved the first one I saw.

Anonymous Bush aides are already being quoted saying that Kerry is "delusional" for not conceding Ohio.
