9. How about NECN w/ Chet?
Typically, NECN has good commentary - informative, concise, balanced. Don't they carry the national returns too?

you can't look at yourself and say, `I was impartial.' When I
can't, I'll leave." - U.S.Sup.Ct. Associate Justice Clarence

16. Faux News all the way......
I want to see their nervousness as the Kerry landslide builds up and their final meltdown when Kerry is declared the winner.

25. Democratic Underground.
Well, I'll watch CNN also to have the TV experience but I will probably just watch numbers come in over DU. It was my experience with the gubernatorial races in Kentucky and Louisiana as well as with the primaries that once 15% or so of the results were in, the numbers didn't fluctuate any further.

27. NBC and Comedy Central.
One's obvious, the other is to see Rush Limbaugh cry/NBC usually has the best graphics. Sorry, but if the channel looks ugly, I'm not gonna watch it. I'll flip on C-SPAN at some point.

Later.

29. None of em.
I'm gonna rent a movie and stay away from the TV all night. The spin machine will be in full effect and will only serve to tick me off. I wanna turn the TV on in the morning and hear that Kerry is our next president.

40. IF I watch the tube, it'll be CSPAN and PBS...
It sounds deadly dull, but I cannot stomach the other shills -- they literally make me ill.

I'll probably be listening to NPR, too. And, of course, there's the best source of all -- DU! :yourock:
