Even Republicans acknowledge that that network is a joke. Don't even bother to go there.

I was just looking at Media Matters who is tracking when and which stations call a winner.
No surprise that FOX would call * when nobody else does. They want to set up the air of inevitability.

| 4. They are still voting in Ohio, so FOX can't possibly know how this will |
|
turn out. Nobody else has made a projection. Al Franken thinks that Ohio will go blue because in the urban areas around Cleveland, which traditionally vote Democratic, they are still voting. He doesn't think that we will know the results until tomorrow. He called Florida for Bush*, but still believes that we can pull this off.:shrug:

| 6. Mayor of Columbus on AAR right now, says "Fox called it for Bush in Jan" |
|
He says it's nowhere near over and believes the state will still go for Kerry. "Hold on!" he tells AAR.
