Well, 45% of Americans are die hard republicans.

45 % of Americans are die hard Democrats.

And 10% don't even know who what is the capital of the United States, or for that matter that the world is round, let alone the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

The Democrats generally have a tough time appealing to this segment of American society.

The republicans just zoom right in and talk all tough and vote for me and you will stand tall.

Works every time.

Listen, Kerry actually did better than I thought he would.

If Clinton had of been running against Bush, he would have destroyed Bush IMHO.

In a perverse way, I am glad the Republicans won because the mess that they have created is so huge, the Democrats would have been blamed for it all in four years time. This way, it's going to be pretty hard for them to wiggle off the hook.

Iraq.

A struggling economy.

Massive debt.

A falling currency

The draft.

Let them deal with all of this rather than the democrats.

You watch, in 18 months Bush's popularity will go through the basement floor. The chickens will be coming home to roost, mark my words.

The thing I can not understand is why people actually like Bush. I mean he has quite literally done nothing "for" you in the last four years. Nothing. And yet he wins cause he wraps himself up in the flag and dupes people into believing his BS.

I don't know who will be the nominee for the Democrats in 4 years. It won't be Kerry, it probably won't be Edwards, or Gore. It will have to be someone new on the scene.
