3. I do wish that John Kerry was our president.
But, from my chair here, all indications are that the election is over.

Suppose for a minute that that the vote was contested and it showed that Kerry had actually won the election.

What happens next?

Bushwad will volunteer to leave office because he is such a great and generous fella?

I don't tink so.

More likely, there would be a huge cover up, complete with murders, and falsified evidence to support bushwad. And, don't forget the media.

The media is starting to be more critical today (which really pisses me off) but you must remember that they were silent when it mattered the most ..... during the campaign. I love bushwad skits flooded the channels disguised as news stories. Even our convention had real conservative ass-holes as commentaries.

Unfortunately, our candidate does not appear to be willing to fight either. Look at it this way; like a domestic violence case.

You do not have a crime unless there is a victim. A victim willing to testify and to stay the course. When someone tries to help the "victim" see the light and get a divorce, the same thing almost always happens. They change their mind, he wasn't so bad, he really loves me, and then they attack YOU.

We do not have a willing victim; and the same thing will likely happen here.

The facts are these: our party ran the worst campaign in the history of politics ..... and lost. This was coupled with the largest grass roots effort on record along with the largest fund raising total in history. They ran ads on the fucking game show channel while bush ran ads during the most popular network shows in America.

The sky is not blue. It has Fallen. In fact, it was falling when many of us said it was. The urgency that I sense in your post is similar to the urgency expressed months ago about the direction the campaign was heading.

I hate to admit it, but the indications are that we lost the election.
