I really think Bush has this election. I mean, obviously not everything is in right now...but viewing what has come in and tallying up the electorial votes it would take to launch Kerry beyond Bush...sorry, people. We're probably stuck with the ape-man yet another year. Kerry needs Ohio to stay in the race...and from what I'm seeing, he ain't gettin' it.
No, I didn't vote. And, no, I'm not complaining. Whether or not I did vote wouldn't have mattered. Jersey came out Kerry and that's who I would have voted for.
I just don't think presidents should be able to have that re-election option. Honestly, it's a security blanket, people. People stay with what they know. And, unfortunately, what we know isn't always the best thing out there.
In other words, and vaguely related to the election, I think people outside of the US should really just keep their traps shut on what they think they know about the war. Obviously this doesn't apply to everyone who talks about it. But, really, unless you know hard facts, war tactics, and other such things...just keep your trap shut. Yes, I have taken classes on war during my college career and believe me when I say the teacher I've had will be the first to criticize the US (and he does so every now and again). No, it isn't a piece of cake to find one man in that sand pit. No, it isn't easy to control that situation. I don't like Bush, but facts are facts. It's not an easy war to control. So, really, if you don't know the facts and just find it amusing that we can't find someone or control one country, shut up. What do you know?
Hey, it sucks that Bush is (probably) going to be back in office, but shit happens.
