It was pretty obvious no one wanted to call that last 270 state, despite having called other states with equal data.
Mathmaticly, Kerry's chance in Ohio was 300-1 against him winning, but they still wouldn't call it.

Nail on the head, Ustwo.
I'm still wondering why those exit polls were so wrong and for the second election in a row the buzz was wrongly pro-democratic and was out before the polls closed.
