:D The late Democratic Mayor of Chicago, "Big" Bill Thompson, had it right when he suggested that the people, "vote early and often." They did and he won. Let's see if the Ripublicans can duplicate that trick. They'll need a whole lot of tombers, but it can be done. Ha, Ha! :D

Time to pitch it in if this heavyweight above has jumped ship . From Flounder (Animal House), "Six years of college, down the drain".

[sq764]

but did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

This means something because, even Bush's base is starting to jump ship. At least those in the know are.
It also means something because:
Regardless of who wins this election, there is going to be a civil war in the Republican party next year. You folks may want to start choosing sides now as it is going to be bloody. :D :D :D

I recognize "former" as "has been". LOL.
The only thing I hate more than a politician is a "former" politician.
They are bigger losers than "former" horseplayers. LOL.

I gotta admit, it's fun to watch the Dem supporters grasp every last sign of hope they can..

Fact is,the very future of the democratic party is on the line - they could find themsleves forever destroyed after this election.
Civil war in the rep party? Surely you jest.

I tend to believe some theories that predict that a Kerry Win would be the best thing that could happen to the Repubs. More precisely, the Conservatives. The resulting damage to the Hillary wing of the Dem party would really cause a rift in the Dem party. Then add in the damage to the economy, national defense and more importantly the poorest of the poor, you really see the end of the Dems for at least two or three election cycles.

American Conservative Magazine just came out against Bush.

"George W. Bush has come to embody a politics that is antithetical to almost any kind of thoughtful conservatism. His international policies have been based on the hopelessly naïve belief that foreign peoples are eager to be liberated by American armies—a notion more grounded in Leon Trotsky’s concept of global revolution than any sort of conservative statecraft. His immigration policies—temporarily put on hold while he runs for re-election—are just as extreme. A re-elected President Bush would be committed to bringing in millions of low-wage immigrants to do jobs Americans 'won’t do.' This election is all about George W. Bush, and those issues are enough to render him unworthy of any conservative support."
