I'm seriously thinking that whatever happens to the Country, we've got it coming.

I just CANT BELIEVE that there are THAT MANY morons in the United States....this STINKS of FRAUD, and Kerry is going to roll over like a bitch.

2. I dunno; Florida?

How is it Bush was TIED in Florida last time, but this time he wins by 300,000 votes? Because he did such a great job as president?

5. Hate won
I don't know how many times I have to say it. Gays, liberals, Muslims, foreigners; we now live in the Confederate Theocracy as has been stated elsewhere. The vote margins in all the states prove it. This is what the people in this country really want and we better face it.

3. Fuck this Election!
I plan to work my ass off for 2006! Here in Oregon Gorden Smith(R) is my Rep. and guess what the only way he has been able to win is with the Gay/Lesbian and Liberal vote. He will have a battle on his hands next time! So for now we lick our wounds and start taking over in the next 2 yrs!

4. Kerry's punctuation errors in the Springsteen song:
Apparently Kerry heard Bruce sing:
-- "No retreat, baby. No surrender"

but thought he meant:
-- "No! Retreat, baby! No! Surrender!"

6. Kerry wants to spare us from the uncertainty of 2000.
IMHO he and his staff looked at the results in Ohio, and decided that there were not enough provisional ballots to overcome Bush' lead. Kerry could have fought it out to the bitter end, but he decided it would be better for the country to concede the election. I'm sure that was not an easy decision for him to make. Much as it pains me to say so, it was probably the best thing for him to do.

7. No way.
It was not the best thing to do. You don't say to your supporters who have shed blood and tears for you and say, 'welp, I don't feel like waiting until all the votes are counted'. That's bullshit.

8. Basic math was
not your strong suit then? Do you think that Kerry can't do the math? Ohio was lost by a margin greater than the number of uncounted votes.

We lost because we did not get out enough voters or maybe it is the case that more than 1/2 of the US are a bunch of asses.

Move on. There is plenty of work to do if we waste our time on a losing battle we will lose the war!
