Good for him. I was hoping he wouldn't whine and cry about it. It wasnt ALL that close.

oh i didnt mean about challenging votes and stuff, i meant just going out and voting in the first place.

yup, you nailed that one on the head chris. Granted it would be nice to have a very liberal president to change things up a bit, but america is too unstable and divided right now, and i feel that kerry's "do the complete opposite of anything bush would do" attitude would end up hurting our country. I'll be interested to see who runs in 4 years though ( hopefully nader finally dies, and it'll be gore vs. kerry) that'd be interesting.

oh.. i see what you mean. yeah it was kinda a supprise, although i think almost every florida county had more bush votes this time around. typically new voters register and vote for the other party since they want a change.

thank goodness, it sounded like edwards was gonna be a little bi@tch about it.

yeah, its not close at all in my opinion. i at least expected a scenario like last election(dem's take the popular, rep's take the electoral) but nope, democrats couldnt even pull that off.

um.. 2 democrats? im guessing a McCain / Clinton ticket in 08 if the 2 candidates had to be picked now.

You think Clinton will be back in office? Is that even possible after being president already?

*ChrisCantSkate* · 11-03-2004, 11:37 AM

Yeah right, why do you think the Clinton party was heading up Kerry's campaign. They wanted him to lose.. lol. Seriously, I think Hiliary will be running in '08 I'd be surprised if she doesn't (atleast for VP.)

the american people love bill, not hillary. i hope she does run, that'll be an easy election to call.
