Election Analysts

Pollster Zogby speculates that Bush won by running as the outsider against the supposed leaders of the country. WTF? When Bush and the GOP controlled all branches of government and still supported by most of the So-Called-Liberal-Media? It also seems clear Zogby is now questioning the Florida and Ohio results. He has posted this article by someone else supporting allegations of massive fraud on his website, I smell a rat.

The debate over Ohio results continues in subscription Salon.

National Journal: A quick post-post-election exit poll: Which of the following two statements more accurately describes what happened on November 2?

A) The election was a stunning triumph for the president, the Republicans, and (especially) social conservatives. Because the country turned to the right, President Bush received a mandate, the Republicans consolidated their dominance, and the Democrats lost touch with the country.

B) Bush and the Republicans are on thin ice. Bush barely eked out a majority, the country is still divided 50-50, and the electoral landscape has hardly changed, except in one respect: The Republican Party has shifted precariously to the right of the country, and the world, that it leads.

Usual answer: A. Correct answer: B.

How good are exit polls? The exit polls also showed Dukakis and Gore winning.

Brownshirts - Now that Bush has won his supporters are writing to the Department of Homeland Security trying to get Democrat sites shut down and their leaders arrested as traitors.

Contrary to conservative rhetoric, liberals aren't on the decline - conservatives are. People who call themselves conservative peaked in 1995 at 40% and have been declining ever since. Liberals have remained steady since the sixties at 18%.

Gay Sex News - A national GOP leader placed personal ads for multiple male partners, unsafe sex. It's official - the new gay GOP head. Children of same-sex parents well-adjusted and normal according to studies. The GOP response -- look over there! - they out Interstate highway for sodomy and try to force name change. (They now claim this was a hoax.) Scalia again supports orgies to eliminate social tensions.

Letters from soldiers: "It scares the shit out of me that there is a single soul in this country that can still be in support of George W. Bush."
