What if Kerry wins and Bush* refuses to leave the WH?
Bushco have done so many illegal and unethical things that I can't imagine them going quietly. What if they refuse? What if they spend the last two months shredding every document in the place? What do we do?

1. The the secret service storms the place on Inaugural day and
throws his ass out of the WH.

10. That's what I would guess would happen
If Bush loses, he will go without it coming to that. I really don't think he'd be that childish. If he is, we can send Babs and Poppy in to get him. His dad will understand how he feels.

2. If they lose and refuse to leave...
that, my friend, is what we call a civil war.

9. Except there'll be nothing "civil" about it...
Four years ago I was still naive and a little bewildered at the goings-on. Not this time...

As Bush said, "Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again..."

If I'm going down (a second time), I'm taking a few Repukes with me...

Seriously...

4. We storm the palace and throw rotting food at them until they leave.
Under lock and key if necessary!

5. I will be there
with my (now legal) assault weapon and help escort them out. But I think your fears of shredding everything in sight are real.

6. We'll
smoke 'em out their holes! That's what we'll do. We'll stand in front of the White House and shout, "Get out of Kerry's House".

Besides, he's hardly ever there, Kerry can sneak in when he's on one of his many trips to Crawford.

7. I am more concerned there will be Vote "challenges" in key States.
That will negate the entire election and keep Bush in place.

18. I've got plans to take all money out of the stock market and put it into
money market accounts right before the election - another election that is not resolved on Nov. 2 will cause a drop in the market.

If it takes two to three weeks to be resolved, the market will lose several hundred points as the uncertainty drags on.

24. Now that is a more likely scenerio.
Why wait though? If you do it now it will help depress the amarket and look bad for bush!

25. you're probably right.
On 9-11 bush told us to keep our money in the market, we'll be all right in a few days. Watched it drop like a rock.

It dropped after the 2000 election and I expect this one to be more contentious.

I hope I'm wrong.

8. It would set the republican party back 50 years
It would also result in a "civil war" amongst "republicans". I hope they do it.

13. no secret service needed.
Kerry could take him easily. I think shrub would ball like a baby. Chenney would fight dirty. Big time.

It's hard to leave. Wa Wa I'm calling my mommy. But Jesus told me.....

12. They said Clinton would do the same thing 4 years ago.
He will leave just like he is supposed to.

19. I really don't think that will happen
I don't think we should get fussed up about very unlikely scenerios.
