Florida exit polls-Too close to call-Mccain up 34-32
Edited on Tue Jan-29-08 05:44 PM by Tropics_Dude83
First Wave of Florida Exits, Revealed

The first wave of exit poll numbers, including absentees: McCain 34.3 percent, Romney 32.6 percent, Giuliani 15.3 percent, Huckabee 12 percent.


RIP Guilani

From National Review online which has posted these exits since N.H.

No dem exit polls but since NRO doesn't care about our side, I'm not surprised. Check New Republic for those maybe? I will in a sec.

Aren't the polls still open?
They should wait until the polls close.

2. Whoever in the MSM leaked these polls should be arrested
We are forgetting the lessons of the sloppy media coverage of the 2000 and 2004 elections.

4. Rudy can still win it! It's his strategy.
It's rope-a-dope, he's going to come out swinging on Super Tuesday, and take it all home!

5. That's close.
The exit polls have been largely correct this election. Still, it's very likely it's wrong when it's that close.

6. I can't wait for tonight
I'm going to get some popcorn and watch a too close to call race unfold as all of the precincts report. Is there anything better than this to a political junkie?

9. What a dilemna!
Who to root for?!

I kind of want McCain to win since Mitwit will be forced to spend some more of his own money to keep going.

I kind of want to see Mitwit win just to knock McCain down a peg.

13. I think I will just campaign in one state and win the nomination!!!
That was such a brilliant strategy. We needed a genius like Rudy to run our country!! :sarcasm:

14. Rudy has been a 'dead man walking' ever since he pulled out of Iowa....
... and all this has occurred before his business partner Kerik is convicted and Rudy called to testify under oath.

So it appears "Mr. Inevitable" was in fact inevitable -- to lose.

15. We want Romney right?
Anything to make their race closer and nastier and more expensive. Ideally Huckabee would be best and keep it a three way but let's be real.
