Sorry man but youre stupid.
I doubt people are coming from all over the US to the XBOX-Scene forums looking for election results.
Just accept that Kerry is done,

Jesus man, calm the hell down.
I should also mention that "urban" simply refers to the inner city. It may have a higher proportion of african american voters, as well as dozens of other ethnic groups.

I just can't believe that there is that many ppl who supported Bush.
They said it was gona be real close, but I thought it would be in Kerry's favour.

Bush said "Our country is under attack. Our values are under attack." and it worked. People fucking voted for Bush as their savior. This proves one thing, over half the country is made up of closed-minded fearful sheep. I changed my mind, I DO want to take their bibles away. With Bush in office, there'll be enough forced religion to go around without them and they'll make great feedstock for thermal depolymerization, after all, with Bush in office crude oil is just gonna keep going up up up!

It obvious that''s who the majority wanted when Florida And Ohio Both voted for Bush. You're stuck with the guy, all you can do is wait for the perfect oppurtunity to hit him with an impeachment, or sit at the steps of the white house, and picket for the next 4 years. The Demos would have had a much larger chance if they didn't pick such a left wingest, all they needed was someone slightly different from Bush, and they would have had it in the bag. We all know the majority who voted for Kerry only did to smite Bush. |
Uh, read the damn news... Kerry Concedes Election To Bush Kerry didn't send his team of ravenous lawyers in to cause a repeat of 2000, he was a gentleman and admitted his defeat. I agree, it's over, the fat lady has sung. When I posted my "taco bell dog" message, the Ohio votes where still up in the air and REPUBLICANS where already claiming victory.
Hopefully, Bush realizes his job is to serve the entire American public, not just the people who voted for him. 48% of the popular vote, OVER 55 MILLION Americans felt strongly enough that Bush wasn't the right man for the job. We're not talking sour grapes, we're talking a country strongly divided. If Bush learned something from this, there's still hope.

I agree, Bush does need to change, but we have to work with what we have, and we have Bush for another 4 years.

I'm sure Bush is more than competent enough to run the country, he's been doing it for 4 years now, and we haven't gone up in flames (except once, and only in 3 locations, and in his first year of serving). Looking back now, I would have been fine with either of the canidates becoming president. Kerry just made me uneasy alot of times with his economic plans that wouldn't add up, outsourcing homeland security, and long head.
Edit: I haven't watched SNL since Farley and Hartman died, and Sandler left.

sorry but i feel the need to pick a bone with you on this. history has shown us that some of our greatest presidents of all time were not appeasers, but visionaries. their job wasn't so much to satisfy the other party, but to push forward their agenda and get the job done. men like jfk and reagan. They weren't hand-holders or appeasers to the other party, they communicated their position (forcefully and effectively) and got the job done...
also, for those of you who complain saying this isn't a MANDATE b/c the election was so close. What is a mandate? Consider...
wislon did not win by as big a percetage as bush. jfk did not win by big a percentage as bush. roosevelt did not win by as big a percentage as bush. Reagan did not win by as big a percentage as bush, and clinton did not win by as big a percentage as bush (both times!). trust me, bush's win is the closest thing to a "mandate" America will have for a long time.
