If you had your choice in the Nov. 2004 election
would you pick
a. Bush wins but we pick up majority house and senate.
b. Kerry creams Bush but the status quo remains.

I hate Bush so much I have dreams about never seeing his horrid face
again but I wondered today what scenario we could do more under.

4. Kerry! He could undo all the ill-will * has created toward the USA!
That would be a big help.

Any true proponent of peace would choose b over a.

8. If Kerry wins the 'status quo' does not remain.
The status quo is Bush and his band of criminals.

10. If Kerry wins
and the House and Senate remain in Republican control, a Kerry presidency will be pretty useless. He'll be blocked in every piece of legislation he tries to pass. You think the hounding of Clinton was bad? I hate to think what will happen to Kerry in that scenario. He would be blamed for every single failure that ought to be placed squarely in the blame of Bush and all the Republicans.

What we need, really, is to get back the House or the Senate, preferably both.

And book Bush out of the White House, of course.
