This country has all the aspects of fascism except for the presence of elections, but something tells me that next year's elections will just be a formality.
This guy will probably manipulate the poll results or do some other nasty stuff in the name of patriotism. We know how he operates.
And we better start praying that he doesn't invent some security threat before the election or else he'll start saying that we should be united or some garbage that makes 90% of the country jerk off in their pants while watching an American flag on TV.

14. We are very sensitive to improper use of language in DU |
|
Gore won the election, not Bush. Bush won jackshit! The Supreme Court intervened, disregarded a state issue, and stopped the recount.
Gore got more popular votes in Florida than Bush, and he would have gotten the Florida electors were it not for the GOP's theft.
Gore got more popular vote across America than Bush.
You could edit your title to say "will Bush win in 2004?" YOu still have time to do so.

8. He Stole It Before, He'll Steal It Again, Unless.. |
|
1. We expose the mechanisms by which they are doing large-scale vote fraud and prevent their continued use.
2. We win by such a landslide that they cannot steal the election. I have no idea how much would be enough here. In the 2002 Georgia Senate races, they were able to steal 16% of the vote without being questioned. VNS conveniently went dark, and continues to supress the data for those elections (which they presumably consider "bad data" because it doens't match the results that came from the machinez), and the talking head made up some story about a huge late surge in favor of the Republicans.

9. It depends on what loyalty a $200000000 ad campaign will buy |
|
Let's say we go with a recent poll that gave the ratfucker 29% hardcore support and 41% hardcore opposition. Democratically speaking, that means ratfucker has to convince about 2/3 of the remaining electorate to see things his way, or about 1/3 of the 41% not to vote at all, or some combination of the two.
I give ratfucker good odds on this, based on the mammoth campaign fund he's gouged out of his wealthier ratshiteating cronies at taxpayer-subsidized $2000/plate luncheons. Plus, I fully expect he'll have his mafia hand him Florida one way or another, at the very least.
Let's say, right now, I put him at a 60-40 favorite to accomplish further abuse of the nation.

13. based on the obvious diaster we're in in Iraq... |

...I don't think he's smart enough. What's going on now is a public relations nightmare for him. He just can't seem to get himself out of it - and this is clear to even viewers of CNN.

15. Dude, stop being so negative |
|
Some people here are treading on my last nerve. If you believe Bush will win, then he will win.
We will win. Now get off your ass. Stop your whining. And make it happen.
