Deference

Deference, does that mean that the democrats truely did not care who won the election? That the anybody but republicans/Bush policy didn't drive them to the polls? It means that some who would have voted Democrat didn't show up because they were not motivated or disciplined enough. Bush supporters, Republicans, are more frequent voters who were galvanized by their identification with Bush. I don't truly believe Bush represents the con

Wrong, Grim. A moderate democrat loses to an energized conservative base every time. Kerry v. Bush is a great example. Had Howard Dean been the candidate, he would have succeeded in drawing out the left and not dealt with his weak moderatism versus Bush's strong conservativism. Republicans often suggest moderate candidates such as Lieberman because they know liberal lefties aren't interested in them and neither are conservatives. ...and

I can't say I agree with you, Draginol. I'm certain that some interaction between Kerry and Bush supporters further polarized those individuals, but their minds were already made up. That fails to account for the Kerry loss. The more concise reason for Kerry losing was that democrats simply didn't go to the polls. The huge get-out-the vote drives failed to materialize actual voters, the "youth" vote increased by 5 million over the 2000 election and

A girl in my dorm who I've been trying to persuade to vote Kerry since the beginning of the semester finally told me yesterday that she didn't vote for Bush. "Why? " I asked, she'd always liked Bush better. "It was the only hope I had that I'd get David back sooner," was her reply. F*ck Iraq and the dogs of war, and piss on their piss - poor reasons. </fo

If there is one thing proven in this election, it's that American voters want the country to remain as socially conservative as possible. The silver lining in this is that Roe V. Wade might get put on the endangered species list after some new Supreme Court Justices and conservative voices were heard concerning the traditional family unit. It's finally been proven that the culturally conservative vote can turn out and will. One thing that w

Its not just another 4 years of Bush. Its 4 years where he will care even less about actually having to please his contstituents People who voted for Bush this year must have envisioned an Us v. Them mentality instead of a "what's best for America" approach. . . more war, more deficits, more protection for big business, America lost out. As long as people are being blown up by suicide bombers, NO ONE IS SAFE ANYWHERE! </

Call me crazy, but I want a concession speech from John Kerry. I think Kerry lost, it is important to be cautious in evaluating the outcome of this election. In regards to our government, it is a democratic-republic we pick representatives but also vote counting each independent ballot. 4 MORE YEARS!!!! ..of Bush is a good thing? We shall see. So far it's been the road of wayward wars,

Damn shouters... What I had attempted to post: Looking at the race so far, I'm certain the Republican vote is the first thing being counted as Republicans are more frequent voters who will make it to the polls first. After capturing the mid-west, Bush will probably stall out as Kerry wins the electoral vote... Just watch, drmiler, th

what's up with my post?!

Looking at the race so far, I'm cetain the Republican vote is the first thing being counted as Republicans are more frequent voters who will make it to the polls first. After capturing the mid-west, Bush will probably stall out as Kerry wins the electoral vote...

So far, The Political Machine has held true in it's predictions. 7:42 What a nailbiter of an election...

Polls are open for a few more hours, “I voted” stickers are on a number of CMSU student shirts, and predictions of who will win or if Americans will even know abound. Yes, it must be Election Day, 2004. If we miraculously have a decision for the people any time soon, we’ll go in to this Christmas with some expectation of what the New Year will bring. For Bush supporters, a Republican victory might bring comfort that America still wishes to

Kerry, MO

I always enjoyed "the colonel's" radio show back when he was on in the 90's. I can't say I agree with him on this. It's pure smear to talk of Kerry betraying the troops when he talks about Vietnam. We know Vietnam was a war with serious problems, the fact that some people still say it's some honorouble duty to back it is actually a disservice to veterans' sacrifices in that war. The only reason we hear of some Vietnam vets loudly protecting

Yep, shrug off those endorsements guys, just like all the other red flags been waved trying to warn and inform Americans of the doo - doo from this White House...

I sure am glad the war in Iraq is going so well and that I voted for the guy that put us in that mess. Four more years! (of bullshit)

With George W. Bush, we know his positions. His positions are plainly stated and ones he consistently keeps - sometimes to a fault. We know where his expensive and costly policies have led us and it is because we know where they will continue to lead us that it is irresponsible to continue to vote for this guy. The "power of the purse" an important power granted to the legislative branch has routinely been grasped at by the current adm

Cool, Sugar High !

Which me myself censored?

We can further liberalize our speech laws on coarse language, but other words that have been picked out as offensive are the new taboo by some heavenly group mandating what is proper and what is not in society. Don't worry, though.... I just spit on them. Then I called them any word they deemed offensive from a list they handed out.

I've been training.

My guy is getting pretty good, someday I'm going to be a pokemon mas- I meant, what name does your candidate go by, historyishere?

Candidate Deference is looking for a few good schmoes...

Yes, my parents had the same problem with homeowners insurance. They paid a particular insurance company faithfully for over 20 years on one house. They had two claims during the entire period totaling in about $200.00. They finally decided to sell the house off and buy their dream home, guess what, the same company they'd been with for 20 years wouldn't sell them homeowner's insurance for the new house, t
