EMAIL FROM A BUSH OPERATIVE: “We are feeling very confident about Florida. So are people on the ground there, who know a good deal about these things.” He adds:

Let me make a broader, and very significant, point. The media are now changing the models they are using to estimate where things stand. The actual votes underscored how flawed the exit polling data was – and so the media are making adjustments in where things stand. What does that specifically mean: The final exit polls had us down by five to six points in Wisconsin; the estimates now are that we are even. The exit polls had us down three points in Iowa; the estimates now are that we are even. The exit polls had us down in New Mexico; the estimates now are that we are even.

We’ll know soon enough. I hope!
