make it more likely that Republicans win. If the machines were owned by Democrats, maybe he would be making a different prediction?

Well, it's as good a reason as any especially since airc, that was the actual prediction made by Rep. Peter King from NY:

Congressman Peter King's (R-New York) pre-2004 election quote: ...
It's all over but the counting ....and we'll take care of the counting"

And he wasn't kidding. So maybe Chuck is simply agreeing with that assessmen by Peter King?
