If you think the election was rigged, how many votes do you think Bush
got? If not 51%, then 50.5%, 49%?? Even 49% is still around 60,000,000
votes. Certainly someone voted for Bush. So, if you really think he's
so bad you either have to believe that 60 million people are just
totally stupid, or you must come to the understanding that other
intelligent people see things differently and your opinion is just
that, an opinion, not fact. Democrats will continue to lose elections
if they continue to not understand Republicans. If you choose to
believe Republicans vote out of stupidity, you've lost that vote.
Republicans, on the other hand, DO know why people vote liberal.
Liberals want the gov't to take responsibility of taking care of
everyone.

Well put.

If you think the election was rigged

Why can't you be bothered to read the posts to which you reply? Nowhere did
I say that I "think the election was rigged". This is, in fact, the second
time I've had to try to explain to you otherwise.

[...] If you choose to

Frankly, I did think it was a good sign that a sitting President *barely*
got reelected. Incumbents usually do better. Nevertheless, it's clear from
talking to all sorts of people that most people have decided a long time ago
which party they will vote for, and it really doesn't matter what the people
they are voting for have done or will do.

The vast majority of everyone votes out of stupidity. Republicans aren't
any less guilty of this than other folks.

Uh huh. Those Republicans are all over the whole Conservative thing. Odd
thing, "Conservative" used to be all about things like maintaining a
balanced budget and keeping the government out of private lives. Somehow,
that got twisted around to mean spending your kid's money and imposing your
confused interpretation of the Christian Bible on everyone else.

Ohmigod. I find myself in complete agreement with Pete Duniho on a
political point.

Surely the world must be ending!

Try not to worry *too* much. The new year is about to start, then things
will be back to normal! ;-)

Well, this one did better than the two prior incumbents.

Let's see
Bush in 04 reelection 61%
Clinton in 96 reelection 49%

Opps, hit the wrong key...
