Drudge Stacks the Deck
The Drudge Report originally had direct links to real time polling numbers from Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania.
The Ohio and Florida early numbers were favorable for Bush. Pennsylvania was showing a 60 percent Kerry blowout.
Sometime between 2230 and 2245 eastern, Drudge quietly removed the link to Pennsylvania.
Why?

UPDATE: I see what's happening. Florida just got called for Bush, and Drudge removed the direct link immediately. I think Drudge felt PA was out of play.
