Let the handwringing begin. Solid commentary on network media coverage of election 04 and this year's casualty, the National Election Pool, the polling system used by news organizations to predict the outcome of the election. Turns out it wasn't much of an improvement over the Voter News Service which was blamed in 2000 when some networks called Florida for Gore. No doubt there will be lots more to say as the election recedes into memory. This piece would be best run in the days right after November 2nd.
