NBC just said Kerry's getting ready to make a concession speech?!

Did anyone else hear this or did I imagine it? I don't think he will, but NBC just said the podium is being prepared for Kerry for his concession speech!?

(I'll be VERY surprised if this turns out to be true.)

I think I was hearing things, but ABC just said the same thing... at least that Kerry was going to say SOMETHING.

Hmmm, he may make a statement, but I doubt he will concede... yet...

I just saw on CBS that Edwards will be coming out to say something, which means no concession speech yet.

I'm not entirely sure why you'd think Kerry'd be conceding the election, when the electoral votes are 249:242. That's bloody close, and it's still pretty much 48%:52% chance of either one winning.

Actually if you read my first post, you'll see I said "I don't think he will".

So I didn't think he was going to concede... but Dan Rather said that was possible what he was doing. I didn't believe it.

Dan Rather has said a lot of things...... I'll just leave it at that :)

But yeah I don't see anyone conceding - just let the process run it's course - at this stage I'm just hoping I don't have to go through all the recount fiasco of 2000.

Entirely for selfish reasons I might add. My life in 2000 was hell over that.

Siggy.
