Congrats and it looks like a big win too.  Mcbride just couldn't find a way to pay for his ideas without a tax hike.   When push comes to shove people don't like paying higher taxes even for better schools!

Also points out that Clinton, Gore shouldn't have gone to FL:)  Dole even benefits from the Clinton stench:)

So far, the Republicans are kicking ass.    A Republican wins the Governorship of  Massachusetts and a Kennedy lost tonite!!   Clelland lost in Georgia!!   Bush wins in Florida!!  The Dems are going DOWN.

If the trend continues the way it's going,  Republicans will not only retain control of the House,  but will take control of the Senate as well.    Gonna be some purging of the Liberal Democrat ranks if that happens :)

Maybe, just maybe, as a result of this pasting the Liberals are taking,  the Democrat Party will kick the Liberal-Left Wing of the Democrat Party out on its bellybutton and send 'em over to Nader's wacko Green Party where they belong.   Then the Democrats can return to the once-great political party they used to be.  

The Democratic Party of Woodrow Wilson, Roosevelt, Truman, JFK, RFK, et al deserves better than the clowns "leading" it today.  MUCH better.



Great news for America!!

I didn't vote for Jeb because he sold out the state's interest in protecting the Ichetucknee River wildlife preserve to a concrete plant.

I didn't vote for McBride because his lawfirm represented the concrete plant during the legal proceedings.

I voted for that third guy whose name I can't even remember.

So now I can complain about how shoddy a job the Republicans are doing because I didn't vote for Jeb!

But I did vote in favor of the smoke-free workplace amendment, free pre-K, that thing Miami wanted, tax exemption for building a spot in your back yard to house your aging parents, death penalty for teenage felons, class size reduction, and freeing the pregnant pigs.  Taxes on goods should increase over the next few phases to cover the costs of new schools, kindergartens, lost revenue from property taxes on home improvements, and hiring more agricultural inspectors, but hey, I'll blame the tax hike on the Republicans. :D

NBC’s Tim Russert: Now, you said in The New York Times last week, “Jeb Bush is gone.” You want to take those words back? McAuliffe: Of course not. I’ve very excited about what’s going on in Florida. Russert: He’s going to lose guaranteed? McAuliffe: Yep. That is why the president was down there yesterday for his 13th visit. People in Florida are energized. They’ve already started the early voting. And if you look at Broward and Dade counties, there are lines already, huge lines, people--record vote coming out in Florida... we are going to win Florida which is going to set us up, Tim, very nicely for 2004. (NBC’s “Meet The Press,” November 3, 2002)

Nah, I didn't throw it away - I preserved my right to complain about how poorly the government is going to be run.  Why, if that third guy (who's name I still can't remember) had won, we'd be living in Utopia with everything we wanted and not having to pay for anything! ;)  

What will we get under Jeb?  More taxes, lower-quality education for our kids, portable classrooms crammed onto the school parking lots, oil rigs in the Gulf, dead manatees, water shortages, and hepatitis C outbreaks in the panhandle!  If McBride had won, we'd end up with more taxes, excessive development, urban sprawl, more traffic, extinction of the Florida panthers and bears, air pollution, water shortages, budget deficits, and hepatitis C outbreaks in the panhandle!

One good thing about having Jeb in office for another term is that his daughter's drug habit will continue to get regular media attention.

BUSH really SNATCHED that win proving he aint the popsicle we thought he was.







:p





This Rep sweep will just give the Dems more ammo for the 2004 elections. I guess the GOP better put up or shut up. No excuses for the next 2 years.

Maybe they'll just be a road block like the Senate Majority leader was last two years? Lets hope not...

As it should be...accountability, I'm all for it. I'll be the first one to vote him out if he drops the ball.

Just don't be suprised when leadership brings about change that is good for our country and the majority of Americans will re-elect GW to his second term.

Regarding him being a popsicle? That would be your take, not mine.

In Hawaii we have our first female governor, and the first Republican governor since 1962.  I'm somewhat satisfied, but I hope she doesn't goof up and result in another 40+ year Democratic monopoly after her term... choice/competition is always good.
