So when it comes to Rove, why is this man smiling?

His friends say he believes his prediction, based on faith in GOP turnout efforts and reams of in-house data, updated hourly.

"He's seeing things we aren't seeing," said ex-Bush media adviser Mark McKinnon, now with Hotsoup.com, a political online community.

1. Seeing things we aren't seeing? That's called "delusional." n/t

[Laura PourMeADrink]

2. Yes, he's seeing back up plan - vote shaving/swapping in MO n/t

[fidgeting wildly]

3. He's seeing Diebold. nt

8. And ballot tampering, and election disfranchisement, and bullying and...

I'm sure there's more. What have I missed?

4. He sees GEMS in the data no one else sees....n/t

6. if they win we'll know this for certain.

[Junkdrawer]

10. They'll definitely tweak the results..but I can't see them blatantly fixing...

this election like the past 3-5 elections. Too many people are watching this time.

11. From your keyboard to God's ears!

13. Wednesday morning CNN/ABC/Faux talking point...

"And I think this puts to rest ONCE AND FOR ALL any talk of electronic election fraud."...

[helderheid]

14. good point. Well if we win, we best make damn sure those machines

get thrown under the bus

[radfringe]

5. wasn't that in a movie?

I see dead polls?

[neilepi]

7. Look to Rove for confidence....

...not signs of defeat. Whatever the polls and pundits say - his or anyone else's - do not look for even a flicker of weakness or defeat until the actual results are final, if indeed then. It's the nature of the guy.

Just my 2 cents..

12. He foresees election fraud!

Everyone should know by now this guy can never be trusted.

15. I know! I know!

Rove is seeing Libby Dole's mysterious Rebublican "X-Factor" - she mentioned the provocative "republican secret weapon" briefly on MTP yesterday, but you had to be quick to catch it. Libby was babbling on like a desperate, demented harpy.....

16. And

Saw bush on TV saying the people in Kansas haven't gone to the polls yet.

ES&S is based in Kansas.

Secret weapons in NC and the vote keepers in Kansas and Ohio. What, me worry?

17. I just heard that for these mid-term election turnout is expected at 40%.

Seeing as how the GOP base is 35%... that all of a sudden sounds scary to me. Please tell me turnout isn't 40% across the board...

[sabra]

18. that would mean +90% of the 40% are GOP voters...

all that number really means is the US doesn't vote :-(
