True, but isnt even that far too close to America that so ovewrwhelmingly prefers President Bush and the conservative mandate.

The funniest thing is all these loudmouths talking trash about how their self-rightous majority would manifest itself are now faced with the fact that they're actually holding a minority opinion, and their claims to be speaking for the whole country are just so much BS.  

That's gotta sting.

In the largest numerical turnout in history and the largest voter percentage turnout since 1968, a clear majority of voters (51%) voted to re-elect President Bush.  The margin of victory is close in the electoral college but nationwide it's around 3.5 million, 51% vs. 48%.  Even Pres. Clinton couldn't get 50% of the popular vote when running against 2 of the least charismatic candidates to ever run for President.

Call it what you like, but every measure you can come up with calls it a Bush victory, not just a Kerry loss.  The GOP gains in congress just reinforce the overall results.  Kerry and his Democrat supporters are unquestionably in the minority.  Get over it and press on with something positive for a change.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

I wouldn't call 51% to 48% a "clear majority".  I guess I would call it "barely a majority".  Enough to win, but doesn't really do the country much good.  

It is unfortunate that in a country of 300,000,000 or so folks that we couldn't come up with a candidate (for any party) that could capture 70% or greater of the votes.  

If everyone felt like their man was leading the country, that indeed would be something positive for a change.

>>I also love to see stern and springstein and moore and the other "kingmakers " look as foolish as nash.
<<

Yup today they they go back to a mundane life of money, travel, women, privilege etc...

Bruce is probably working on some project, and I guess Stern and Moore are too. Kerry will probably be a little tired after doing something most will never come close to doing. They'll be licking their wounds as they go by the spectators in the world who rooted for one team or the other.

I'm sure they'll pass small homes, double wides, ranch style houses, and storetop apartments. Security moms with 6 kids hanging on their Walmart dress and Fingerhut aprons will run out and yell "LOSER!!!" Dads in 10 year old minivans, 5 year old Silverados, and 2 year old Cavaliers will cut them off yelling "LOSER!!!" Little kids with runny noses, Nike tennis shoes, crappy hair cuts and even crappier attitudes will run out into the street and yell "YOU SUCK! LOSER!!!!"

Yup, Kerry, Springsteen, Stern,  Moore , Mahr, Mellencamp and all the M's (and a's and b's and c') will go though their mundane lives with an audience of millions. But I'm going to post on an internet BBS all day. Because we are one America again - the have and the have nots. And the have nots are basking in glorious victory.

Now once again (in unison) LOSER!!!!!

I agree somewhat with you Furious on the 51 to 48 thing.

But if you look at the Prez, Senate, House and Gov races in total, I do think the repubs got handed a mandate.  Right or wrong, the picture as a whole does seem to say that.
