The problem really lies in the fact that there isn't any one good candidate. They have to vote for the lesser of two evils.

I guess it is like someone once told me... Vote for the Evil you know rather than the evil you dont... :(

It's not over yet, guys. Close, but not yet. If Bush wins, be very afraid. :(

Here's what I can't figure out. I talk to Americans all the time in my business, and I frequent LOTS of internet message boards. The overwhelming majority of Yanks that I talk to, are Kerry supporters. Almost to a person ,they are all afraid of Bush, and think he needs to die. Between my general observations, and the stuff I hear on the radio about all the musicians who are supporting Kerry, athletes, actors.....etc, I ask you this....Who the hell IS voting for Bush???

Aie aie aie eh.

Bloody election. I can't understand how they can vote for someone who has lied to put their country into war. I don't know how you can just forgive him and let him 'finish what he started'. Gimmie a freakin break!

Its leaning kinda BUSH still... so cross me fingers and hope for the absentee to take kerry up  :wacko:

Well it's all over now. Hopefully Bush will use this time to try and re-unite the nation and bring our boys/women home.

I can understand somewhat why Kerry lost, it's hard to switch horses in the middle of a race (meaning changing leaders in the middle of wartime), also I think Kerry relied on the younger vote too much, (18-29) they just didn't turn out like everyone predicted.

I should be an interesting next 4 years, hey at least the comedians will have lots of material to work with!

I think the reason you see/hear that Al is that most Reps are \"conservative\" and don't need to let their issues be known to the extent that liberals do.  I am glad its all over and look forward to 3 more years of no political commercials..  :)

I guess we have no choice now, but to welcome back one of histories greatest monsters,...at least for another 4.
It funny how Canadians pay more attention to US politics than a lot of Americans do!
