The media has to do something to keep people watching.  The only exit poll I'm waiting for now is Skerry conceding.

Exit polls has entertainment value for those watching the election show and is prolly used for statistical purposes.

Oh and Bush made me some money today and _maybe_ saved me some aditional cash before xmas :)

heh, so much for exit polls.
Get rid of em alltogether I say.
I can wait for the real votes to be tallied.

Thats why I was asking in another thread if these exit polls were subject to the margin of error.

HAVE to give credit to Fox News

They said very early that something wasnt looking right with them the way they were falling

Did anyone notice Tim Russurt(sp) on NBC grinning alot when Kerry jumped out to an early lead (76 to 60), then when the tables turned for Bush, he didn't grin as much. :rofl

they all did it... the fox guys looked kind of grim for a minute and even crystol claimed that "exit polls are usually right".   Fox was very upbeat as the night went on (and extremely fair I thought) while all the other cable news services were transparently desperate and shrill.

Anyone who believes the mainstream media is fair after this election is beyond stupid...

To their credit, the mainstream media never did release the exit polls.   Which is a good thing, since they turned out to be crap, like 4 years ago.
