    yeah, but i expected kerry to win (though it really doesnt matter much to me). he should have taken much more clear stance and should have put in points more clearly. God Bless America.

    Looks like the big problem was seniors as a result of his stance on moral issues. BTW, WHY ARE WE TALKING POLITICS HERE (in the lounge) AGAIN?? John

            No Losinger yet. But he did say he might be back after the election - someone said he was testing eVoting machines for the Democrats.

                ... and I'm glad. It means I'll receive no more campaign mailings, flyers, or phone calls for a while. :cool: An expert is somebody who learns more and more about less and less, until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.

                  Oh no you don't - that's how you fooled me last time, and then we invaded Iraq and look at all the trouble that got us into. I'm going to stay up in here until I see posts about service packs, vapourware and circumcision again...

                            y'know what really bums me out? Nader got practically nothing this time around. 1%, tops, from what i saw. Understand, i don't much like the guy, but he was getting some (at least noticeable) numbers back in '00, and it was good to see, given that the two primary choices were terrible. This time around, the primary choices were, if anything, worse, but Nader gets nada. Down right discouraging... :sigh:

                                        Probably because people felt that this time their vote is more important, due to the closeness of the race. And Nader isn't going to win. It's just that simple. So, people threw their vote in with someone who had a chance (B or K). The kindest thing you can do for a stupid person, and for the gene pool, is to let him expire of his own dumb choices.

                                          Yeah, prolly... i guess i just liked watching the Dems squirm after the last election, watching the realization sink in that they'd moved the party platform so far to the center, that a noticable portion of their voters had gone looking elsewhere. The last four years were sooo entertaining... both from the guy in office, and the supporters of the guy who didn't quite make it. Gonna be pretty boring now, what with a nice clean election and all...
