Obama Campaign to Supporters: Don’t Panic Over Early Exit Polls
In a conference call this afternoon, President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign had one central message for their supporters when Election Day arrives tomorrow: They should “keep calm,” even if they hear snippets of information favoring Republican Mitt Romney.

“My warning, we need to stay calm for much of the day,” Stephanie Cutter, Mr. Obama’s deputy campaign manager, said, touting thousands of early ballots already submitted by voters. “We’ve already banked a pretty big portion of our vote.”

The fear, she explained, was early numbers leaking before voters have finished going to the polls, creating unnecessary panic and pessimism among Democrats.

“Keep calm and tweet on,” Ms. Cutter said. “So, no matter what you hear tomorrow about turnout in Republican counties or exit polls, particularly early in the day, please remember and remind your readers that, because of early votes, we’re where we need to be to win….I don’t think there’s going to be official exits until the end of the day, but if things leak out that aren’t validated or weighted, please stay calm.”
I disagree, I think Obama supporters need to panic... :panic: :panic: :panic:
They need to run through the streets shouting, "Noooooooo!"  :panic: :panic:
They need to weep and wail and dress in burlap sacks, and dump ashes on their heads and cry, "WHY!"  :panic:

Obama, "Don't panic."  :stoner:  supporters:  :panic:

Conservatives:  :cheersmate: :yahoo: :tongue:

Yeah, don't worry, they'll 'Find' some 'Forgotten' ballot boxes in Cuyahoga County to handle that little problem...

No side should listen to exit polls at all.  They are the most unreliable, inconsistent, and false pieces of data in an election.  (From Matt Towry, a pollster).  They've been steadily declining in use for that reason. 

Curious words from Dear Leader, tho.

Isn't this electioneering from thewone? He's attempting to sway voters to cast ballots for him before the polls close, aka actively working for a political candidate on election day.
