Where we won and where we lost
1. Kerry won the democratic vote.

2. Kerry won the independent vote. Don't forget that. He won the independents by 10 points at least.

3. Kerry won among people concerned about the economy.

4. Kerry won narowly among people concerned about the Iraq war.

Where did Bush won?

1. Bush won the family values vote.

Turns out Rove's talk did okay - Democrats will ban the bible. Marriage is at risk.

Republicans turned out in droves to defend the bible and the marriage.

2. heh
I actually prayed last night for the first time. I personally don't believe there is a God because I don't see how any benevolent being could let so many horrible things happen in this world. I won't attack believers because that's wrong. However, I will lash out if I get attacked by them.

3. How could Kerry have won the majority of both Democrats and
independents and still lost? Mind boggling. Still doesn't pass the smell test.

5. It is true
He held the dem base and won the majority of the independent vote. It is just the republicans turned out huge to protect the bible and the marriage.

4. take the south out, Kerry won the popular vote
Bush's edge in the popular vote is from his large margins in the southern states.

7. Sure does.
50/50 split in voters over 65. Go figure.
