The WORST thing about four more years of *
...assuming a second term wouldn't completely destroy the country and our democratic system (which it very well could)...


I'm not being pessimistic. I have no doubt that Kerry will win this election. But this is something I haven't heard discussed yet.

With the defeat of *, I believe we'll finally see an end to presidential candidates from this family. The repukes wouldn't be so reckless, after two single-term presidents in such a short period of time.

(Come to think of it, a single term for * will make a nifty second bookend to Clinton's eight years, no?)

What scares me about the possibility of * being reelected is that there seem to be an unlimited supply of them. I believe November 2nd will be either the end of the Bush family nightmare, or the beginning of an even longer, possibly endless nightmare of future Bush family candidates.

2. I'm not worried about a "dynasty" -
After all, they aren't exactly Kennedys.

4. Complete Loss Of Hope Is The Worst Thing About Four More Years
Unemployed 51 months now.

I have already given up on things changing quickly enough to help me - even if Kerry wins.

If Bush wins, I might as well slit my wrists and die on cue.
