Dan Rather: Make no mistake about it, ladies and gentlemen. This race is tighter than a pair of Babe Ruth's pants. But rest assured that we at CBS News are determined to bring you election results that have at least a 50 percent chance of being accurate.

Peter Jennings: ABC's projected victory for President George W. Bush in Utah is brought to you by the Walt Disney Company's smash hit film "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement" starring Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway.

Flip

Larry King: Coming up on a special election edition of "Larry King Live," star of stage and screen, Ms. Carol Channing.

John Sullivan: I'm John Sullivan and I've bought this television time in order to remind my Democratic base that I don't support gay marriage, gun control or a woman's right to choose.

Flip

Wolf Blitzer: I've just been handed a note stating that the winner of tonight's election has agreed to retire in four years and let Conan O'Brien take over.

Flip

"Sesame Street" character the Count: One ... Two ... Two total votes for Alan Keyes!

Flip

Tucker Carlson: So, Sen. John Kerry was apparently pleased that the Boston Red Sox won the World Series. Isn't it dangerous that we have a man running for president who favors one city's sports team over another? Do we want a commander-in-chief who is so set on dividing our country during a time of war?
