So I'm curious ... who will you be watching on Tuesday night?

I will tune in to The Daily Show's "Election Night 2004: Prelude to a Recount" because I think it will take the edge off.

I am curious as to whether or not Dan Rather will still be spitting out his hilarious Texas colloquialisms like he did in 2000.

Or, will you just not be paying attention at all?

No poll ...

Discuss!

I'll probably watch the Daily Show, and might flip to the "real" news during the odd commercial break. Other than that, I'll just sit in my corner and cry.

Watching the Daily Show when I can and as for a "real" news network, all I know is I won't be watching Fox.

I'll be flipping between PBS and CBS. I imagine Dan Rather will be funny to watch and if I get sick of the gust speakers, I can go to PBS for a break. I don't have cable, otherwise I would watch the Daily Show.

I'll be working until late in the evening. Then I'll come home, take a shower, eat some dinner, read a bit, and then I'll go to my urgent appointment with my pillow. Honestly, it isn't all that exciting for me to watch the coverage. I'll find out the next day.

... and TVNZ will just be flicking between the American networks themselves. Probably mostly they'll go with ABC.

No cable, so it'll be online and PBS for me.

I'll listen to the local talk radio and check the count on the internet.
Cannot think of a name

Daily Show. The results will be the same, only hopefully funnier. (It is live, they could bomb-I'd say the odds are in thier favor though. Considering their track record of hilarity)

The Daily Show as much as possible, otherwise I'll be at school tuning into the radio as my teachers look away.

5 bucks I'll shout HOORAY in class if Ohio goes to Kerry during then


Heck, if I can't watch the Daily Show for some ungodly reason, then MSNBC...meh...no Fox News for me! No way...
