This will be great – - I used to do something like this when I was in elementary school – - well except it wasn’t over the Internet and instead involved colored pencils
November 2, 2004 - 01:26 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Allright Lisa, what a fun filled activity for us to partake in…..I only wish our liberal friends like Shiloh and DG and lets not forget SandyB and Alias could be here to enjoy this with us.
Ah to hell with them.
Grab the RED crayons people

Oh, Lisa, you might as well color TEXAS RED right now. Kerry’s not going anywhere down here. I garuntee that.:cool:
November 2, 2004 - 01:29 PM on November 2nd, 2004
My red colored pencil is sharpened and ready to go, Snatch – - we still have several hours before coloring can begin – - but I foresee a red map
November 2, 2004 - 01:34 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Snatch… it’s KOHN… use his real family name.
November 2, 2004 - 01:35 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Stay within the lines now! LOL. Who says your liberal friends may not be here? Watching folks eat crow (one of us will) is always fun .
November 2, 2004 - 01:40 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I am at work wearing my Bush/Cheney t-shirt, and I even am wearing my red undies
November 2, 2004 - 01:42 PM on November 2nd, 2004
good job K!
I’m putting the over/under on Kohn states at 12..any betters?
November 2, 2004 - 01:43 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I don’t want to place any bets…too scary. We’ll be drinking the red wine tonight as they down their blue Kool-Aid!
November 2, 2004 - 01:49 PM on November 2nd, 2004
K-8- thata way to show off your Republican pride, Girl. Give them a hike for all of your liberal co-workers to see……..:lol::lol::lol:
Just kidding……
But you can do it if you really want to.
November 2, 2004 - 01:51 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Ya know, we can have fun here, but roughly half the country will have to suck it up and trust that the people made the right choice when this is over and done.
November 2, 2004 - 01:53 PM on November 2nd, 2004
12 – You are right Ellis, but I have a lot of nervous energy today.
Snatch – hee hee. I would like to clarify that they are red on purpose, by the way
ops:
November 2, 2004 - 01:57 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Ellis, I would agree with you…. but If Kohn wins, I’m going to find it very difficult to suck it up and work with people who obviously hate America, and everything it stands for.
November 2, 2004 - 01:58 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I refuse to bow down to liberalism!
I will never recognize John”Lurch” Kerry as my commander and chief along with his little John Grisham wannabe John “pantene pro V” Edwards!
NEVER!!!!!!!
You all know I’m just playin with you. I’m in a strangly euphoric mood today, I don’t know why.
November 2, 2004 - 01:59 PM on November 2nd, 2004
But Lurch won’t win so we won’t have to worry about any of that:razz:
November 2, 2004 - 02:00 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Snatch.. one consolaion of “Lurch” Kohn winning would be the paralyzed getting out of their wheelchairs and walking again, so that sounds pretty good.
November 2, 2004 - 02:02 PM on November 2nd, 2004
ANd “hair boy” Edwards has channelled the unborn before… maybe he can psychically communicate with Ted Kennedy’s murder victims????
damn..maybe a Kohn victory would be a good thing.
November 2, 2004 - 02:02 PM on November 2nd, 2004

November 2, 2004 - 02:06 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Yeah, and the gas prices are going to go back down to .99 cents a gal when Kohn-Spock-Lurch gets elected…..
I think that the French and the Russians will also embrace America and march hand in hand with us against terrorism while spreading freedom and democracy worldwide……..
And fuzzy little monkeys will come flying from heaven playing ukelele’s while dropping hot naked woman everywhere.
Damn, everthing looks great on PAPER in the Liberal world, doesn’t it?
November 2, 2004 - 02:07 PM on November 2nd, 2004
But the games aren’t played on paper.
The DNC is a Bust
November 2, 2004 - 02:18 PM on November 2nd, 2004
LOL @ snatch….
nice…. Free Healthcare for EVERYONE!!! 8 months off a year for “Flex time”! Bread for 10cents a loaf, the global eradication of paralysis, aids, racism, hunger…just vote for Kohn!!!!!!
I told you he was great!! Don’t believe me? Just ask him! He’ll probably regail you with tales of his heroic 4 month tour in Nam, filming battle reinactments.
November 2, 2004 - 02:24 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Hopefully while filming those reinactments Kerry can avoid getting shrapnel in his ass this time.
November 2, 2004 - 02:50 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Didn’t he throw those medals over the white house fence in protest? Or were they ribbons? Medal-shaped ribbons? Ribbons based on medals? Someone else’s ribbons? Does it depend on the meaning of the word, “Medal”???
November 2, 2004 - 02:53 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I’ve done my part to change the great blue state of Washington a warmer, welcoming RED!! Aheh.
November 2, 2004 - 02:57 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Medals……Ribbons……
Ah, they’re “interchangable.”
How many did Kerry toss over the fence?
“Uh…6…7…8…maybe nine”
November 2, 2004 - 02:59 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Right on margi, way to represent to those west coast liberals.
November 2, 2004 - 03:10 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Good work Marqi!!!!
see how that works, liberals???? ONe responsible person registers, becomes informed, gets himself/herself to the polls and casts a vote.
That’s not how it works on the left…on the left, the illiterate have their registrations filled out for them…buses come around the ghetto with chicken, crack and malt liquor to entice them into getting to the polls.
November 2, 2004 - 03:11 PM on November 2nd, 2004
..where they then vote for who their Democratic party slave masters tell them to vote for.
November 2, 2004 - 03:16 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Kilo-:lol::lol::lol::lol:
Now that’s f-ckin funny.
Hey! That guy’s using his fake voter registration card as a makeshift crack pipe.
Oh well…….
November 2, 2004 - 03:44 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Gotta grab the kid from school and intimidate some voters while I’m at it.:wink:
I’ll talk to you crazy kids soon………
Later.
November 2, 2004 - 03:49 PM on November 2nd, 2004
go disenfranchise some poor voters, snatch.
November 2, 2004 - 03:54 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I just realized. I don’t even own a pen that writes in blue. Just Red and Black. Yeah! Guess I’ll have to color the whole map in Red. Crying shame, ain’t it?
November 2, 2004 - 03:59 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Yeah! 2 more votes for GW! We just finished voting here in Ca. I know wishful thinking here in the “blue” state, but it’s 2 less votes for Kerry!
November 2, 2004 - 04:03 PM on November 2nd, 2004
34- nice work! your vote does matter, one way or another…bush needs the credibility of the popular vote!
November 2, 2004 - 04:37 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Actually- only 50% of the population of this conty will vot, therefore only a 1/4 will be upset when Bush Takes the election.
I love this!
November 2, 2004 - 06:24 PM on November 2nd, 2004
35. “bush needs the credibility of the popular vote”
Why? THe popular vote didn’t seem to slow him down the last 4 years.
November 2, 2004 - 06:25 PM on November 2nd, 2004
36. And it’s sad that so few folks are voting.
November 2, 2004 - 06:36 PM on November 2nd, 2004
For what was to be record breaking turnout, it appears it has the numbers jumped at best from 52% in 2000 to 58% this year:sad:
6% is nothing to sneeze at, but I guess I expected a real jump!
November 2, 2004 - 06:38 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Does anyone have a guess as to what time we can expect some results?
November 2, 2004 - 06:41 PM on November 2nd, 2004
East Coast closes first at 7pm or 8pm EST – depending on the districts.
November 2, 2004 - 06:49 PM on November 2nd, 2004
41. Some are at 7:30, Lisa, and I think NY is 9:00 (not positive).
November 2, 2004 - 07:46 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Aren’t there only like 5% of precincts reporting?
November 2, 2004 - 07:48 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I color them as they are called – should they change, I’ll color accordingly
November 2, 2004 - 08:10 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Thanks LISA:smile::smile::smile:
November 2, 2004 - 08:11 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I thought it was dangerous to call a winner early.
November 2, 2004 - 08:14 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Dangerous? I think I’ll survive. It’s not like I’m pulling these results out of my panties
As I said – as the calls change, so shall the map, Sabor.
November 2, 2004 - 08:17 PM on November 2nd, 2004
But, in Celsius 41.11 they asserted that Bush lost 1000s of votes because the major networks announced Gore was the winner in FL and proceeded to think that their vote didn’t count.
Think about that
November 2, 2004 - 08:17 PM on November 2nd, 2004
shiloh news service reports….anyone care?
November 2, 2004 - 08:28 PM on November 2nd, 2004
i spent the day driving disabled vet to the polls.
just took Kerry voters. the others i left by the roadside. i’m sure they’ll be ok/
altho – it is getting a bit cold out there.
November 2, 2004 - 08:37 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I spent the day driving around the city, running people with Bush bumper stickers off of the road.
November 2, 2004 - 08:42 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Okay, too close to call.
I’m going to go hit my crack pipe soon. This thing is no where near over.
November 2, 2004 - 08:45 PM on November 2nd, 2004
i don’t know how it happened, but snatch met me at my polling place, slapped me & ran away.
don’t worry. i only cried a little.
November 2, 2004 - 08:46 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Hold the horses: Don’t count NJ to Kerry YET- have you checked it out? Its almost 50/50…Bush may win NJ.:!:
November 2, 2004 - 08:47 PM on November 2nd, 2004
loved the “mission accomplished’ pic in the forum box.
November 2, 2004 - 08:48 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Raven – if NJ flips – so shall our map!
November 2, 2004 - 08:48 PM on November 2nd, 2004
shiloh, Sabor;
What is more important? That every registered voter who wants to vote does vote, or that your man wins? I know that you are joking, but you still sound like jerks to me with your last comments.
November 2, 2004 - 08:50 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Latest Results
I am so stressed watching the election results. I know I could turn off the television and step away from the computer, but this election is so important I can’t just walk away after having spent so much time in the last couple of years watching it.
…
November 2, 2004 - 08:55 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I only said that because it happened to me. Some guys was riding my a** and then went to pass me and got in front of me and slammed on his brakes. I had to swerve to avoid hitting him. I fish tailed and nearly crashed.
did nothing to him. The only thing I can think of is that he had a Bush/Cheney bumper sticker and I had a Kerry/Edwards. This guy was clearly trying to tell me something. what, I don’t know.
November 2, 2004 - 08:57 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I had 3 first time voters ask me if I voted! They were so cute! Taking their mom’s so they wouldn’t screw up!
Every vote does count. But Zelda, forgive me for saying this, but I really don’t want it to be down to 500 votes:eek: I want it decisive one way or the other.
Now pass the pipe:wink:
November 2, 2004 - 08:58 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Sabor- sorry it happened to you. I am glad that you didn’t crash!
November 2, 2004 - 09:00 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Thanks, peejz
November 2, 2004 - 09:03 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Okay Sabor, ignore me; I’m sensitive because of the election.
November 2, 2004 - 09:07 PM on November 2nd, 2004
peejz;
I don’t want things to be that close either! However, I’m not going to stick my head in the sand and ignore reality. It IS too close to call. People are still in line waiting to vote in Ohio for Peat’s sake.
If you want some of my crack pipe, you’re going to have to come over to my place and get it.
November 2, 2004 - 09:07 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Zelda, after living the years i’ve lived, i’m convinced you’re right. i am a jerk.
my sense of humor, as my life, is somewhat on an angle.
if somebody has to hit the road, i’m guessin’ it’s up to me.
November 2, 2004 - 09:08 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Okay, I’m off to my crack pipe, but let me be the first to say it.
I have no idea who will win!
November 2, 2004 - 09:10 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I figured that was the case in Ohio… but lets let those eligible by law, get their vote in.
It is way too early!
Has anyone been watching the Daschle race? Now that is a squeaker…
November 2, 2004 - 09:18 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Ok – I’m going nuts. Anyone else?
November 2, 2004 - 09:24 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Lisa, history teaches patience.
DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN
This headline made news in the 1948 presidential election and is one of the most notorious gaffes in publication history. With vote returns coming in slowly, the Chicago Daily Tribune staff based their headline on early returns and “felt”Dewey would win over Truman. As more returns poured in, panicked staffers soon realized their blunder and with trucks and station wagons set out to retrieve the papers. Though thousands were recovered, many remained in the hands of baffled readers the next morning.
Sometimes, it’s the unintended blooper that winds up as an embarrassing headline in print. The writers may not realize their innocently intended words were creating a major faux pas.
oops
November 2, 2004 - 09:26 PM on November 2nd, 2004
i just may have a breakdown before this is over..:shock:

Okay..I’ll just watch for a while! Daschle is fighting for his life….
November 2, 2004 - 10:38 PM on November 2nd, 2004
wow…. this is nuts… it really is true that the unemployed dems voted early today!!!!
November 2, 2004 - 10:43 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Sheesh in my little state of New Hampshire they still haven’t been able to make a call. Its dead even-which surprises me. I was just downtown and drove past the GOP headquarters and saw many people in there-probably doing what we’re doing: Sweating it out. I’m beginning to have real confidence that Bush might win.:lol:

I approve this message
To say that I’m a nervous freak today is putting it lightly. I’ll be watching the returns tonight with my fingers crossed and my hopes high. My hope for the winner have been clearly stated, both here and there.
It’s all about the people’s v…
November 2, 2004 - 11:11 PM on November 2nd, 2004
The Mavericks won and it looks like Bush is holding down the fort for victory too.
I think he’s got Florida.

Shiloh- RE: 55
Stop bullshitting Shiloh, if I smacked you, you wouldn’t know who won this election until next month because thats when you would wake up:mrgreen:

November 2, 2004 - 11:37 PM on November 2nd, 2004

November 2, 2004 - 11:40 PM on November 2nd, 2004
As of now, Bush is up 52% to Kerry’s 47% with 96% of the vote tallied in Florida. Sounds good.
November 2, 2004 - 11:41 PM on November 2nd, 2004
CNN just reported that a “source” inside the Kohn campaign is conceding Fla!
November 2, 2004 - 11:41 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Ohio-
Bush 52%
Kerry 48%
62 percent of the votes are tallied.
November 2, 2004 - 11:41 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Judy Woodruffe looks like she wants to cry!!!!
November 2, 2004 - 11:42 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I think Wolf Blitzer, Dan Rather and Peter Jennings are going to hang themselves with their shoelaces.
November 2, 2004 - 11:42 PM on November 2nd, 2004
They shall be conceding Ohio before long, my dear friend Kilo.
By the way, I’m glad to see you survived your forray to the polls.
November 2, 2004 - 11:43 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Yeah, Snatch..I was a first hand witness to voter fraud, too..and reported it to the D.A.
November 2, 2004 - 11:44 PM on November 2nd, 2004

Good lookin out for your country Mike. Can you go into details about it or were you sworn to secrecy?
November 2, 2004 - 11:46 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Yeah, you can tell Brit Hume likes to take Juan behind the scenes during commercial breaks and slap his Kerry Kool aid drinking ass around.
November 2, 2004 - 11:47 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Yeah, I saw a democratic poll worker actually cast a vote…….. no wonder Kohn carried PA
November 2, 2004 - 11:48 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Hey, I haven’t heard or seen much about Wisconsin. Any word on whats going down over there?
November 2, 2004 - 11:49 PM on November 2nd, 2004
I called her on it right there, and proceeded to call the DA and election board….not that it will matter, this is the people’s republic of PHiladelphia
November 2, 2004 - 11:49 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Thats all good Mike. You did what you could. The numbers just weren’t on your side.
November 2, 2004 - 11:50 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Kerry is up in Wisconsin 51% to 48% with 41% of the precincts reporting.
November 2, 2004 - 11:52 PM on November 2nd, 2004
Hey, Tom Dascele’s holding on for dear life. That is another left wing terrorist apologist that needs to take a hike.

November 3, 2004 - 12:28 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Yeah, even NBC’s Brokaw checked off Colorado to Bush. He’s got about a 9% lead there.
November 3, 2004 - 12:32 AM on November 3rd, 2004

FOX NEWS JUST PROJECTED THAT BUSH HAS WON OHIO!!!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 12:42 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Fox News just called OHIO for Bush!!!!
Where is shiloh??????????????
November 3, 2004 - 12:42 AM on November 3rd, 2004
woooooo hooooooo!!!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 12:43 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Kohn is running out of lifelines……….:lol::lol::lol:
November 3, 2004 - 12:44 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It all comes down to New Mexico.
November 3, 2004 - 12:46 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I can hear the liberals whining from California, to the New York islands.
November 3, 2004 - 12:51 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Juan Williams is grasping at straws!!!!!!
ahahaha
Where u at Shiloh???
November 3, 2004 - 12:51 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Where ARE our liberals???
November 3, 2004 - 12:52 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I can’t decide whose pouting mug I want to laugh at more, Blather, Jennings, Blitzer….aaahahahaha
November 3, 2004 - 12:52 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Bush has a 5% lead in New Mexico with 80% of the votes tallied. We’re almost there, guys.
November 3, 2004 - 12:52 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I could stay up all night wathing the Kohn eulogy!!!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 12:53 AM on November 3rd, 2004
New Mexico does it.
F-ing Juan Williams is already talking about an OHio recount….
here we go again…
November 3, 2004 - 12:54 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Notice that ABC and Jennings still refuse to call Ohio? They’re choking on this.
I love it.
November 3, 2004 - 12:54 AM on November 3rd, 2004
No libs here!
they all are crying themselves to sleep.
November 3, 2004 - 12:56 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Juan’s a little bitch. He’s looking for the refs to throw a last second flag.
Time to put the game away. Run up the score, now.
November 3, 2004 - 12:57 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Alaska is the last state to have its poll closed at 1am. My guess is that it goes for Bush, along with Hawaii as well. The President still has a good lead in Ohio, and a lot of newsmedia have called Florida for Bush. =D That’s gotta upset the Dems. ;P Speaking of them, I went to their official blog.. they are oh so very pessimistic. Seeing the color red and LOVING IT.
GO BUSH’04! 4 MORE YEARS!! 2004-2008.
God bless America.
November 3, 2004 - 12:58 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Let them cry. They don’t deserve victory. We decent folks have had to put up with their crap for far too long. It’s our turn to boast, now.
November 3, 2004 - 12:58 AM on November 3rd, 2004
ok guys, we should celebrate, and be proud…
but be gracious….. don’t get me wrong, I still think liberals like Kohn, Shiloh, etc. posed as great a threat to america as Al Qaeda, but after W wins, it’s time for us to be the bigger men/women.
November 3, 2004 - 01:00 AM on November 3rd, 2004
FOX NEWS HAS PROJECTED A BUSH WIN IN ALASKA.
November 3, 2004 - 01:00 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Here we go!
November 3, 2004 - 01:01 AM on November 3rd, 2004
They lied, they cheated.. they engaged in Racial, class, and age divisiveness…. they ridiculed the President, and his supporters.
AND THEY LOST!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 01:01 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Mike Kilo-
I never thought I would hear that coming from you, but you are right.
It’s all in good sportsmanship.
November 3, 2004 - 01:02 AM on November 3rd, 2004
That’s right Snatch… except for people like Michael Moore…no graciousness there.
November 3, 2004 - 01:03 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The Democrats beat themselves. This election was theirs for the taking. They have nobody to blame for this but themselves.
November 3, 2004 - 01:03 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Drudge report calls it for Bush!
November 3, 2004 - 01:04 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Awe, the poor Kerry campaigne is bummed out. Their holding on to wishful thinking now.
November 3, 2004 - 01:05 AM on November 3rd, 2004
uh oh…get ready for the Ohio recount.
Kohn will never concede.
November 3, 2004 - 01:05 AM on November 3rd, 2004
From Instapundit (Ann Althouse): “REALITY IS HERE, and I think we’ve got to give the President and his team a lot of credit. … They’ve won it.” So said James Carville just now on CNN.
Holy shit.
CARVILLE?! Said THAT?!
::: thud :::
November 3, 2004 - 01:05 AM on November 3rd, 2004
bye bye Teresa!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 01:06 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It’ll take a perverse act of fate for Kerry to turn this around now.
Everybody knows that Bush has this cinched, but nobody wants to jump the gun.
November 3, 2004 - 01:06 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Have a drink everyone….America is safe!!!!
bye bye John F. Kohn!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 01:08 AM on November 3rd, 2004
November 3, 2004 - 01:09 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’m gonna run.
Talk to you guys tomorrow so we can celebrate the sweetness of victory.
God bless nad thank God.
See ya, Guys
HERE”S TO FOUR MORE YEARS!!!!!!
November 3, 2004 - 01:10 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Has anyone watched the MSM-Chris Matthews looks PISSED off, as did Jeff Greenfield. Some looked like were going to CRY:razz:
November 3, 2004 - 01:11 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Drudge called it already.
Matt must be as cranky as Brit Hume and ready for bedtime. Heh.
November 3, 2004 - 01:12 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Just waiting for the offical officials, Raven
November 3, 2004 - 01:21 AM on November 3rd, 2004
one the final word is given, i don’t want to jump the gun..i am going to rub it in so many left winegrs faces who hounded me the last couple of days about how people hated bush….
November 3, 2004 - 01:39 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Can’t wait for the victory speech.
God bless!
November 3, 2004 - 02:51 AM on November 3rd, 2004
With Edwards giving his two minute speech it looks like if GW doesn’t pull it out elsewhere Camp Kerry is going to cry recount in Ohio
November 3, 2004 - 02:56 AM on November 3rd, 2004
New Mexico and Nevada will go Bush
November 3, 2004 - 03:10 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Are ya hanging in there Lisa?
November 3, 2004 - 03:12 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’m still here, Rat
Got coffee?
November 3, 2004 - 03:15 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Your the only, lonely member still up……
November 3, 2004 - 03:18 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Well, Reilly is still up with me. Sleep doesn’t seem to be coming my way anytime soon
November 3, 2004 - 03:22 AM on November 3rd, 2004
yes, I’m here
And sleep is way off
November 3, 2004 - 03:23 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It’s kind of funny fox is calling Ohio for Bush after being criticized for calling florida too early in 2000. I can’t find one other source that says Ohio is anything but too close to call.
November 3, 2004 - 03:23 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’m so happy right now. I just want it to be official before I hit the hay.
November 3, 2004 - 03:25 AM on November 3rd, 2004
dont expect anything to be official for the next couple weeks
November 3, 2004 - 03:26 AM on November 3rd, 2004
oh Alias – - ye of little faith – or maybe you just have false hope
November 3, 2004 - 03:28 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I think it is looking bad for Kerry right now but it’s still way too close to call. I dont think this will official for awhile. There are estimates of 250,000 provisional ballots for Ohio that won’t be counted for 11 days.
November 3, 2004 - 03:28 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Mathmatically and logically – it doesn’t add up for Kerry in Ohio. Bet your bottom dollar that concession speeech is being practiced and honed by the Kerry camp
November 3, 2004 - 03:29 AM on November 3rd, 2004
but they won’t matter if GW takes other states
November 3, 2004 - 03:30 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I agree with you, Lisa – - I think Camp Kerry is waiting to see what happens in other states to make their final decision on Ohio – - then we’ll hear the speech
November 3, 2004 - 03:31 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Lol you guys will even argue with me over a neutral point, that this won’t be resolved for a couple weeks. What time do you predict this to be over?
November 3, 2004 - 03:32 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Best John can do is tie and then fire the ball over to a Repub’s held house, correct?
November 3, 2004 - 03:34 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Alias – it’s just my opinon, not trying to argue with ya. I think this will be over by tomorrow afternoon. Ya never do know, tho – we’ve seen this happen before when the dems filed in Florida and took us on a wild ride )
November 3, 2004 - 03:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I stated in a few different posts over the past couple of weeks that I thought the election would result in a recount – - but with how the states are reporting I don’t think that is going to be the case and I will gladly admit I was wrong if a recount doesn’t happen.
November 3, 2004 - 03:37 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Rat – yeppers
November 3, 2004 - 03:38 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The guys on Fox seem to be calling it for GWB.
November 3, 2004 - 03:39 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Thank Christ!!!
November 3, 2004 - 03:40 AM on November 3rd, 2004
there is still 47 votes out there it’s anyone’s game
November 3, 2004 - 03:41 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Of course Fox is calling it for for GWB thats just as valid right now as Al Frankin and Michael Moore calling it for Kerry
November 3, 2004 - 03:43 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Once they call NM for Bush – GW is coming out. Even with the number of provisional ballots still left out there – Bush has the margin that wins Ohio. It’ll be up to the Kerry camp to pull a Gore.
November 3, 2004 - 03:45 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Lisa –
It’s looking bad for Kerry. There’s more than just Irag and terrorism at stake here – the economy, our liberties, deficits, all the domestic issues. Time will tell if the American people made the right choice. I congratulate those of you who adore GW.
A side note. You have been most gracious in providing this site and permitting open dialogue. I think, however, that kilo went way beyond the edge of reason and decorum with his constant, hostile attacks, rhetoric, name calling, etc. I was disappointed that he was not rebuked for his diatribes and occasionally lengthy posts (after all it’s not his band width) that bordered on being a book.
November 3, 2004 - 03:49 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Thank you, Ellis.
You should have seen the posts by mike that didn’t go through. I started this site not to be judge and jury of anyone on either side. Allow people to express themselves, whether I agreed with their ideas, tactics, opinions, etc. I think we’ve been successful in that, Ellis – - if you felt attacked, I’m sorry for that. It’s my feeling that we’re all adults here – if we choose to engage in debate surrounding heated topics . . then we take the heat along with it.
Cheers!
November 3, 2004 - 03:51 AM on November 3rd, 2004
lord knows I’ve been personally attacked enough on this site over the past two years! lol
November 3, 2004 - 03:55 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Lisa – I disn’t feel personally attacked as I ignored mike’s posts for the most part. I’m happy that I was able to “debate” with y’all although it did feel like I was smacking my head against the wall at times. I still disagree, but I can be convinced. I just hope that GW does indeed try to unite as Hughes and others say he will.
Anyway, it’s not worth debating anymore here … unless of course Ohio presents a surprise.
November 3, 2004 - 03:58 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Oh, I forgot to mention that I agree re: taking the heat if you get in the ring. As such, I don’t feel attacked.
November 3, 2004 - 04:00 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’m glad you didn’t Ellis. I find the opinions from the other side to be refreshing at times, and the debate is fun – even if heated and irrational at times. We’re only human
November 3, 2004 - 04:02 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Amen to that … although at this hour I feel less than human! Thanks again — BTW, this was the only conservative site I monitored. I couldn’t take much more – LOL. Peace.
November 3, 2004 - 04:03 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Attacks come and go. Just today I was told to kiss someone’s ass and just laughed about it because I figure the source has to be considered and when people result to such tactics their arguments lose all weight.
I don’t think there is anything wrong in any way with how this site is operated. It allows people the right to voice their opinions – - as I’ve said in the past we recognize the First Amendment here and exercise it daily – - that means good and bad no matter the bandwidth that is used – - Plus it doesn’t hurt that Blogs About, the hosting company, is owned by Lisa and Chris.
November 3, 2004 - 04:05 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I agree, Reilly. The monitors have done a wonderful job, and I noticed the KMA correspondence earlier. I merely chuckled, and also considered the source.
November 3, 2004 - 04:07 AM on November 3rd, 2004
glad you think we’re doing a good job, Ellis – - and laughter is sometimes the only way to go
November 3, 2004 - 05:22 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The Results
Looks like Bush Wins but it looks pretty close….hat tip: Right Voices.
November 3, 2004 - 05:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Yeah! Daschle has been voted out!!!!!
Check out CNN, CBS, NBC- they aren’t increasing Bush’s electoral votes but are increasing Kerry’s-how ridiculous and childish. Hopefully, after Bush gets back to work in his office, the libs and demos will take a look and see what they have done to their party- it’s a real shame. Looks like Kerry is going to start legal action in Ohio- oh brother! Can we just have 1 election without the demolibs attempting to overthrow our votes?:mad:
November 3, 2004 - 06:24 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Well, if by some chance Kerry comes out victorious, all I have to say is:
WE TOOK FLORIDA THIS YEAR, BABY!
November 3, 2004 - 07:37 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It looks like 4 more years with President Bush.
November 3, 2004 - 08:00 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Stiopping by to say good show to my Republican friend here at Rightvoices- my PC blew so I have limited access to the internet.
Way to go guys!
Ted
November 3, 2004 - 08:04 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Hey Ellis…
booo hoooo
November 3, 2004 - 08:06 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Yeah!
November 3, 2004 - 08:59 AM on November 3rd, 2004
LIsa, I just want you to know that.. Yes, I have been very caustic in my tone, and sometimes abusive..
The reason? For the last several years, I have had to sit around watching Kohn and the American Left calling my president a LIar, a Nazi, a facist, saying we are an imperialist power, saying we are spilling blood for oil, etc. etc. etc…. If my tone is harsh, it’s because I am fed up with these weasels attacking my country and it’s DULY ELECTED leaders.
November 3, 2004 - 09:08 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Congratulations Conservitives Everywhere.
I am damn proud of my country today.
My hat’s off to you, America.
November 3, 2004 - 09:09 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’ve never been prouder to be an AMerican than today.
November 3, 2004 - 09:13 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Only problem was that I was p most the night waitin for them to declare Bush the winner but he never was.
Why din’t New Mexico or Nevada get called for Bush?
CNN refused to evn give Bush his elect. votes for Ohio. No media bias my ass.
And here they start their whining again.
November 3, 2004 - 09:15 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It doesn’t matter. Bush knocked Kerry out in Ohio by 150,000 votes.Their aren’t evn that many provisional and overseas ballots still out there.
Come on Kerry.
Accept your defeat like a gracious loser.
November 3, 2004 - 09:16 AM on November 3rd, 2004
He won’t…. he will wait until all the votes are counted..Bush will still be ahead, then He’ll sue.
He hasn’t a shred of dignity…
November 3, 2004 - 09:16 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Any of our liberal friends still clinging to false hope that Lurch has a chance to win?
November 3, 2004 - 09:20 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Speaking of which I’ll bet we don’t hear much from the liberals today.
That little pansy Shiloh is probably too scared to come on here and give us a sincere congratulations. That’s allright.
He’s probably blinded by the desperation the liberals are all exhibiting across America this morning.
Better luck in 4 years, liberals.
November 3, 2004 - 09:20 AM on November 3rd, 2004
They are either doing that..or they put cyanide in their Kohn Kool-aid…
November 3, 2004 - 09:21 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Maybe they’ll all move to France now…
dare to dream.
November 3, 2004 - 09:23 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Any chance Michael Moore is drowning his sorrows in a vat of chicken wings????????????
Glad I’m not working the all-you-can-eat buffet in Michigan today…..
yikes!
November 3, 2004 - 09:24 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It looks like President Bush won Ohio by 145,000 votes. Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell, a Republican, said the number of uncounted votes could indeed exceed 200,000.
I can’t fault Senator Kerry for waiting this thing out even though the chances of him winning Ohio are almost nil.
November 3, 2004 - 09:25 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Hell, I’m still waiting for that hack Alec Baldwin to move to Canada from the wager he made about the 2000 election.
I’ll bet yu that Kerry was kicking Ted Kenedy’s ass last night after he found out that he lost Ohio. Probably had him in a headlock or the two were slap fighting like little girls……:mrgreen:
November 3, 2004 - 09:26 AM on November 3rd, 2004
duh… he’d have to win like 80% of them!!!!!
are you kidding… just be a man, Kohn, and concede. Stop whining like the pampered, gold-digging, self-serving, phoney Irish Catholic that you are.
November 3, 2004 - 09:28 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The provisional ballots would have to come back at least 80% in Kerry’s favor. And besides, many of them may not even be valid.
Kerry is done.
He has no chance.
Conceding Ohio would be the best way for him to go out.
November 3, 2004 - 09:29 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I see Kilo and myself are on the same page.
November 3, 2004 - 09:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
great minds….
November 3, 2004 - 09:41 AM on November 3rd, 2004
It’s a sad day for the Democratic party. Kerry is toast, they lost the Senate and even more in the House. Bush will more than likely appoint conservative judges to the Supreme court bench.
WHOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
After the dirtiest mud slinging campaigne that the DNC has displayed in our lifetimes, I can say this with happiness
They deserved to lose.
Where are you now, Michael Moore?
Who’s the dumbass now,Ted Keneddy?
Hey Terry MaCauliff, where you hiding you arrogant bastard?
That figures…….
DEAD.
SILENCE.
November 3, 2004 - 09:46 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The news is stagnant right now. America deserves for these swing states to get off their asses and call a winner.
You know there will be no timely cooperation by the democrats. They’ll drag this out as long as they can because thhey have no dignity.
November 3, 2004 - 09:57 AM on November 3rd, 2004
And speakng of no dignty, I hear that the ACLU is raising hell about the Florida vote count. I guess Bush winning Florida by 450,000 votes this time still isn’t enough to convince some of those die hards.
Does’nt the ACLU have their resources tapped in their war against God and their fight for the rights of murderers and child molestors andterrorists?
Give it up.
November 3, 2004 - 10:07 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Don’t you know..the ACLU is “non-partisan”
November 3, 2004 - 10:13 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The left is coming totally un-glued… Kohn will not admit he was trounced by 3.5 million votes… the lawyers are out.. the “non-partisan” ACLU and NAACP are crying foul…..no shame or dignity whatsoever.
hey, who do you suppose is having the worst day? Michael Moore? Jeanneane Garofalo? Al Franken?
hahahaha
November 3, 2004 - 10:13 AM on November 3rd, 2004
You’re right Kilo. I should have known that. How presumptuous of me.:lol::lol:
November 3, 2004 - 10:13 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Is anyone doing a suicide watch on Terry McAuliffe? Everything he’s touched has withered and rotted over the last 4 years. Not that I’m complaining.
Bush – Clear majority of the popular vote vs. 2000
Senate Majority – Increased (’02 and ‘04)
House Majority – Increased (’02 and ‘04)
Daschle – GONE
November 3, 2004 - 10:14 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’ll bet the Clinton’s are happy though.
November 3, 2004 - 10:14 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Ratings should be through the roof for “Air America’ radio today (if you can find it).. and the Clinton News Network…audience full of conservatives watching Wolf Blitzer, Bill Schneider and Judy Woodruffe bawling like 5 year old girls……
November 3, 2004 - 10:17 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Maculiff’s probably too ashamed too face the music. He’s just a loud mouth liberal with no class.
Maybe he can get a job as an analyst with CBS.
November 3, 2004 - 10:17 AM on November 3rd, 2004
You noticed all the CNN blubbering too?
November 3, 2004 - 10:19 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Judy Woodruffe is the worst.. I honestly thought she was gonna cry last night when Florida was called for Bush, and they were scrambling to find some scenario whereby Kohn could still win…. it was reality TV at it’s best!!!
November 3, 2004 - 10:19 AM on November 3rd, 2004
of course, now they are saying, “well, the nation is divided.” fricking can’t win with these libs. does 11/11 states voting for marriage between a man and a woman (by decisive margins) look like a nation divided? does 3-4 mill of the pop vote for bush look like a nation divided. oh, and by the way, f/u osama bin laden!
November 3, 2004 - 10:20 AM on November 3rd, 2004
They are still in denial that Bush won Ohio over there at CNN. At least MSNBC had the balls to admit that defeat was imminent.
You know our boys over in Iraq are breathing a sigh of relief. Those guys knew that Kerry would not have been a strong war time leader.
He probably would’ve blamed the military for everything bad in Iraq on his watch.
November 3, 2004 - 10:23 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Yeah, did you hear what Katie (clinton) Couric said? “The president failed to expand his base”
Unless, of course Katie, you don’t include gaining seats in the senate and House, winning over 51% of the popular vote, winning by 3-4 million votes and kicking out the Senate Minority Leader as expanding one’s base!!!!!
Maybe she’ll cry too.
November 3, 2004 - 10:23 AM on November 3rd, 2004
You see, K, I told you that it would turn out for the best.
And you’re right- this country is not nearly as divided as the left would have us believe.
Remember-united we stand
Divided we fall
On a different note, I think you just offended scores of liberals when you just dropped the F-bomb on Bin Laden.
That is not politically correct:twisted:
November 3, 2004 - 10:24 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Snatch, don’t say that too loudly. That’s what George Stephanopolous did at ABC.
Honestly, how much more time do you think Air America has left?
What will MoveOn.org, ACT and George Soros do now?
November 3, 2004 - 10:26 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Katie Couric is a midget mouthpiece for the DNC. She’s just trying to downplay the fact that Democrats across America took a severe beating last night.
Those bruises are too big to hide though.
November 3, 2004 - 10:27 AM on November 3rd, 2004
And P Diddy and Michael Moore…winning the House, Senate and the Presidency – first time since 1900 – just shows how effective those asses are.
Gloat.

i know the right wing likes to be the right wing. and the left wing likes to be the left wing. but shouldn’t our leaders try to become more centrist, for the sake of the nation?
November 3, 2004 - 10:30 AM on November 3rd, 2004
ACT, Moveon.org, Media Fund, and Democratic sugar daddy George Soros………
It would be too much to wish them to hell, but they’ll lay low for a while, like the bully who finally got his ass handed to him.
Thier ego has been crushed.
Don’t think that they won’t stir up the occaisional cesspool just to make Bush look bad though.
November 3, 2004 - 10:30 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I truly hope Al Queda looks at the election map when it selects a target for its next attack. I will laugh and laugh at the grief of the rurals, sheep that they are. Four more years of Terror, four more years of Empire!
November 3, 2004 - 10:30 AM on November 3rd, 2004
any chance of P. Diddy fulfilling the second half of his little slogan now??????

One of my co-workers is married to a reservist. They don’t see eye to eye politically (she doesn’t care for either). BUT…
Her view and vote changed when he said to her “If I get activated again, who will you trust to lead and give the orders?”
November 3, 2004 - 10:32 AM on November 3rd, 2004
steven – that’s why we love you liberals, so full of hate.
November 3, 2004 - 10:33 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Shiloh, I’ve always said that none of us should stray too far from that moderate line, but the Democratic party, once a party of fair values and conviction, has now gone so far left, it’s just too much for American’s to take.
November 3, 2004 - 10:34 AM on November 3rd, 2004
240 – that didn’t quite address my question of whenther or not the president should govern more to the center.
November 3, 2004 - 10:34 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Steven, you will get f-cked up if you ever have the misfortune of crossing my path.
I promise you that.
November 3, 2004 - 10:34 AM on November 3rd, 2004
That’s it steven….ridicule people, call them sheep.. THAT’S WHY YOUR SIDE LOST, DUMBASS.
You lost because you have no class, you call the president a liar, a nazi… you call republicans facists… you call anyone who dosen’t live in the cesspools of NY, LA, Chicago and Boston “Sheep”.. you truly hate American, and Americans…
but guess what???? If John Kohn, Fatass Moore, George Soros, et al would have conducted a civil, honorable campaign, rather than a campaign of lies, fear, and insults, I guarantee you that they would have won.
think about that the next time “nazi” “facist” or “empire” escapes from your pie hole.
November 3, 2004 - 10:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
re 242 – liberal haters? more promised vilolence. do you reflect those who agree with you politically?
November 3, 2004 - 10:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
steven, you will laugh at the grief of the rurals? So what you are really saying is you are all for terrorism and support it with the hope they strike America and murder more innocent Americans just because Kerry didn’t win – - is your last name bin Laden?
November 3, 2004 - 10:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
More Neal Boortz:
With 100% of the precincts reporting, George Bush has won Ohio by 145,098 votes. That’s right, 145,000 votes. The Poodle’s campaign won’t concede because of desperation and sour grapes, but if they think they’re going to win Ohio, it ain’t gonna happen.
All of this seems to hang on the so-called “provisional ballots.” Many of these are ballots were cast by people that were too dense to actually show up at the right precinct to vote. Some were filled out by people who may not have the right to vote, including people who were not registered. A certain amount of those ballots will be disqualified. The estimates on the number of these ballots is 175,000. If you work on the assumption that (1) all the provisional ballots will be allowed, and (2) those ballots will fall within 5% of mirroring the Ohio vote, there is no way that Kerry can come close to erasing the 145,000 deficit. If you’re a leftist, things don’t look good. Ditto if you’re an Islamic terrorist.
I guess that this all means that I was wrong. Not real wrong. Not embarrassingly wrong … but wrong nonetheless. Yesterday I was predicting that The Poodle would win. Well it sure doesn’t look that way right now. Something extremely odd and extraordinary would have to happen to turn things around right now.
You do know, don’t you, that if the situation were reversed in Ohio … if it was John Kerry instead of George Bush leading by 145,098 votes, Kerry and his media myrmidons would be declaring a complete Kerry victory and demanding Bush concede. Last night The Poodle sent out The Breck Girl to announce that every vote would be counted. Well, every vote has been counted, and Ohio goes to Bush.
Kerry has a chance to show a bit of class here. His advisors are telling him that the game is over. He should concede and allow the process to go forward.
November 3, 2004 - 10:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
steven – your post is inane.
November 3, 2004 - 10:36 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Shiloh.. the best thing President Bush can do right now IS to reach out to the other side, find common ground.. focus on the things that unite us.. work for common-sense solutions to problems…
Will your side recognize his victory? THe republicans’ mandate? and Stop with the “Liar” and “Nazi” bullshit???
November 3, 2004 - 10:37 AM on November 3rd, 2004
With 95% of precincts reporting nationwide Bush has almost 57 million popular votes. This is a record popular vote for any presidential candidate in the history of the nation. Now I know that the popular vote is a Constitutionally irrelevant figure … but the Democrats were sure proud of the fact that Gore won the popular vote in 2000. Let’s see if they give Bush the same props. Oh … by the way, Bush also got the majority of the popular vote. That’s something Bill Clinton was never able to do.
November 3, 2004 - 10:38 AM on November 3rd, 2004
248 i’ve never called anyone a nazi. well, there was one fellow who talked about ethnic cleansing that a made a comparison with.
November 3, 2004 - 10:39 AM on November 3rd, 2004
The president isn’t that much more conservitive than John Keneddy was.
Remember, Kennedy was willing to risk nuclear war with Russia. (MIssles of October) over Cuba.
That didn’t mean Kennedy was a war monger. He had morals and ethics. Bush has morals and ethics.
The left wing does not believe in morals or ethics, they believe in political correctness and affirmitive action.
November 3, 2004 - 10:42 AM on November 3rd, 2004
251 comparing ten days in October to the war in Iraq (which i hope you’re not doing) is colossolly
apples amd oranges.
November 3, 2004 - 10:42 AM on November 3rd, 2004
RE:244
Shiloh, I believe it was steven who wished violence and death on our country and you want to get on to me for taking offense and laying it out to him?
That’s why they call it the left wing. Because they certainly don’t hae a “right” bone in their bodies.
November 3, 2004 - 10:43 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Shiloh.. I see your not-so-thinly-veiled shot at my anger toward both muslim terrorists, and the “peaceful Muslims” who refuse to condemn them, or help us to root them out.
I stand by that sentiment. It’s not ethnic cleansing..and, of course, ALL muslims are not evil murderers or complicit do-nothings…but many many many millions are….and we are at war with them
America knows this.. that’s why they re-elected a president who will take the fight to them.
November 3, 2004 - 10:45 AM on November 3rd, 2004
254 – at lest you’ve forsaken the term Muslim-animals. that’s progress.
November 3, 2004 - 10:51 AM on November 3rd, 2004
234: shiloh, it’s a nice thought, but in my mind centrism is what you get when there is a lack of leadership. And resolve. And conviction.
Scenario: You are in a room full of people and half believe 2+2=5, not quite half believe 2+2=4, and a small few just don’t care.
Do you try to compromise and get each side to give a little so everyone is equally offended? Or do you take a stand and trust that that everyone will eventually come to understand 2+2 does =4. Or do you side with the 2+2=5 because that is seems to be the most popular view and will offend the least amount of people.
Personally, I like to know where people stand. It gives me a clear view of what I’m dealing with, and, right or wrong, what actions I need to take.
November 3, 2004 - 10:52 AM on November 3rd, 2004
steven is the epitome of sour grapes and i think that should be taken as a threat. i’m in too good of a mood to deal with sour grapes today, so you all later!
November 3, 2004 - 10:52 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Well, I’m feeling magnanimous today. However, I fail to see why you are so squeamish about calling something what it is. THis is why Bush won, and why we love and support him. He isn’t afraid to call something what it is. He dosen’t govern via “nuance” (read: flip flop)… some things in this world ARE in black and white.
All Muslims are NOT terrorists.. but
Virtually ALL terrorists ARE muslims.
Not all gays are pedophiles.. but
virtually ALL pedophiles ARE gay.
Marriage IS between a man and a woman.
The government SHOULD NOT be stealing ever-increasing portions of our money.
and judging by the election results… my fellow Americans agree with me.
November 3, 2004 - 10:53 AM on November 3rd, 2004
I’m gonna go grab some coffee and roust the liberals that are sitting around crying at my local starbucks.
They’ve given me alot of shit the past few months….
It’s payback time.
Shiloh, try not to take this defeat too hard okay?:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
I’ll post back later.
November 3, 2004 - 10:53 AM on November 3rd, 2004
nicely put, sasha.
alright, i am outta here!
November 3, 2004 - 11:05 AM on November 3rd, 2004
All I can say is:
I TOLD YOU SO
:!::!:
ALL YOU LIBERAL WIENERS CAN KISS MY ROSEY RED…
FOUR MORE YEARS!!!!!!!! GLOAT!!! GLOAT!!! GLOAT!!!
I AM DEFINITLY A HAPPY CAMPER TODAY!!!! YOU GO GEORGE!!! KERRY GO HOME, KERRY GO HOME!!! EDWARDS IS A DORK!!!!
/gloat (well, maybe not
)
November 3, 2004 - 11:07 AM on November 3rd, 2004
here is an idea;
if all you liberals need a plane ticket to south america, maybe you can hitch a ride with Micheal moore??? 
:lol::lol:
November 3, 2004 - 11:07 AM on November 3rd, 2004
gracious winners are rare here, madbarr.
you’re the very example why some folks say ‘2 Americas’
November 3, 2004 - 11:08 AM on November 3rd, 2004
HEY EVERYBODY!!!!!
Just off the AP wire……..
John Kerry has just called Bush to concede the ELECTION RACE.
NO JOKE
November 3, 2004 - 11:18 AM on November 3rd, 2004
Well, maybe Monsieur Kohn will save a shred of his dignity after all.
I’ll agree Shiloh, there is no need for that Madbarr… after all, once Moore gets on the plane, you’ve reached the maximum weight capacity for a 747.
November 3, 2004 - 11:21 AM on November 3rd, 2004
wow… I wonder how Kohn had to swallow his enourmous ego and make that call…
I actually pity him.. he basically spent 9 months calling the president a lying, ignorant, slow-witted boob, and was trounced by 4 million votes by him
ouch.
November 3, 2004 - 04:11 PM on November 3rd, 2004
Way to go, Lisa. Fantabulous job. I had you on speeddial all night (well, auto-refresh). I just wanted to say thank you for all you do.
xoxo
November 3, 2004 - 04:21 PM on November 3rd, 2004
Margi – thank you
I’m so tired! LOL
November 3, 2004 - 04:22 PM on November 3rd, 2004
Lisa, g’afternoon. before you go rest/
somehow i’m getting emails from the ‘exit polls’ forum. i don’t want them and don’t think i asked for them. can you help?
November 3, 2004 - 04:37 PM on November 3rd, 2004

Give it a red!

Zelad I looked but got no info, just a purple america?
November 12, 2004 - 08:52 AM on November 12th, 2004
Exactly, look in the lower left hand corner. Red is 100% Republican, blue is 100% Democrat. This map gives a better look at America then the map at the top of this page.
November 12, 2004 - 09:25 AM on November 12th, 2004
Thanks!
November 29, 2004 - 01:03 AM on November 29th, 2004
hello right voice america. please consider history and look at our current state of affairs. also think about who snr bush is trying to benefit. i don’t mean to insult anyone… you or the current administration, but surely there is a better way than the bush way

why is the electoral map still displayed 4 months after the election?
do some still need to be reminded?
March 10, 2005 - 08:15 PM on March 10th, 2005
Maybe…
Or perhaps there is something to be said about savoring a hard-fought win.
Think sports.
I still see people with Gore/Lieberman bumper stickers on their cars. Probably realized those things were printed on a perma-tack adhesive and won’t come off.
How’s the back?
March 10, 2005 - 08:29 PM on March 10th, 2005
the back & the map are bothersome.
March 10, 2005 - 08:36 PM on March 10th, 2005
The proper application of drugs can relieve both aggravations.
March 10, 2005 - 08:38 PM on March 10th, 2005
The improper application of drugs can make you not give a shit!
March 10, 2005 - 08:43 PM on March 10th, 2005
Yeah, but too much vicodin can stop you up so that you won’t be able to.
March 10, 2005 - 08:47 PM on March 10th, 2005
I wouldn’t know about that; the one’s I would improperly apply would make me eat so much that I wouldn’t be able to not.
March 10, 2005 - 08:49 PM on March 10th, 2005
I like the by county map better!
March 10, 2005 - 08:52 PM on March 10th, 2005
So do I; it shows where the “blue” REALLY is in my state!
March 10, 2005 - 08:56 PM on March 10th, 2005
i know better red than anything, JG.
on a site that invites conversation on issues, it does kind of stand out as a ‘you’ve already lost the election, nothing you have to say will mean more than us winning already” attitude.
of course, i’m probably wrong.
