I just wanted to point out the BS coming from both sides, which I
agree is not a major factor anyway, and probably cancels each other
out.
4 years ago I was amazed at the claims of a "stolen election" when it
was a virtual tie and there was no obvious winner.
It will be interesting to see what Bush does now he is not trying to
get elected again. My guess is that the "war on terror" ended last
night and the cleaning up the mess will begin soon. He has to
recognize that almost half of all voters wanted a change and to get
anything done he will need to start listening.
But... all this sets up an interesting scenario - Hillary for Prez in
2008?????
