123. Maybe so, yellowdoggess...
I probably do hope *a lot* but right now, I'm just trying to defend principle more than anything else. I too agree that it's hard to believe Bush genuinely won Ohio. The simple fact of the matter is that Ohio was hit economically HARD by Bush's policies. They lost half a million jobs there, and while the rural areas might be more conservative, that state is very pro-union with a high blue collar contingency whom Bushco. has done no favors for. I know many people do have a tendency to vote against their best interests, and put religious fervor above economy, so I can understand Bush maybe getting 40-45% of the vote in that state, but NOT a majority. Something stinks, there. I have already written to the judiciary committee and will urge others to do the same. Will it work? Who knows, but I couldn't live with myself if I didn't try. Especially knowing that there WAS shenanigans in that state with the voting.
