This is all the corporate media can do to "explain" the fraud...
This Brad Stone guy writes like a 5 years old. Is interesting to see his "athletic" attempts of "massaging" the truth and behave like a good slave.

------------------------------------------------------------------
" Nov. 4 - Pundits and politicians, bloggers and businessmen spent much of Election Day confident in the knowledge that George W. Bush's tenure in the White House was over. They were reading and trusting the unofficial exit polls that showed a slim margin of victory for Sen. John Kerry. The official results, of course, told a different story.

(snip)

The exit polls, produced by an organization called the National Election Pool (NEP), suggested all kinds of ultimately flawed results. For most of the day, they put Kerry ahead nationwide by a one- or two-point margin and with slim leads in Ohio, Florida and New Mexico--decisive swing states that he ended up losing. It also showed the senator competitive in states like Virginia, where he actually got whomped, and revealed a late-breaking, nonexistent surge of undecideds for Ralph Nader. The faulty figures appeared throughout Election Day on Web sites such as Slate.com and on the sites of many bloggers, who hinted at a decisive Kerry victory. The data was then amplified by millions of readers who eagerly relayed those numbers to colleagues, friends and family.

(snip)

"By midday on Tuesday, there was a spreading certainty among the chattering classes that voters had booted the president from office. Pollsters were privately calling the race for Kerry and declining market numbers revealed Wall Street's skittishness about the apparent change in administration. As the actual counting of the votes began, Republicans were panicky, Democrats energized. Early on election night on CNN, an obviously elated Ted Kennedy spoke with unusual confidence about a Kerry administration."
