Two or three days ago I mentioned in this space that Michael Barone on Fox was the person to watch. Sure enough, though he looked tired and a bit distracted at times, early in the evening he offered big clues about Ohio by pointing to how Bush was doing well in counties in Indiana that were similar to several key counties in Ohio. He also noted how Bush was performing well in key parts of Florida long before anyone came close to calling it. You got the feeling that the "decision desk" at Fox was entirely superfluous: just let Michael make the calls.
He was much better than that female lawyer that FOX had on who came across as a repetitive, incoherent drunkard. There were many fine liberals to have as commentators than her. Yikes!
Tony, I thought the exact same thing. She looked like she was good friends with Teresa Kerry....
Jay Cost was also the man. His blog was dead on accurate. Somebody should hire this kid. Horse Race Blog
Thanks a lot for your tip earlier to watch Michael Barone on Fox. We did so, and were really impressed.
