What are you looking forward to if Kerry wins the election?
This is trivial, but I am so looking forward to never hearing the phrase "plain-spoken man" ever again. :7

4. No more ad nauseum references to 9/11.

9. I am looking forward to my son growing up--his teen years--with a...
great president. He's ten. He doesn't remember Clinton, since he was only six when Bush stole the presidency.

I know he's looking forward to the Kerry years, too. He must get tired of me raging at the television. :-)

19. I'm glad too.
I don't have kids, but if I did, I would hate for them to grow up believing the Bush administration was a true representation of America's standards and ideals.

10. not being stolen blind
It drives me nuts they are raiding the treasury 24/7 and in fact, they've already emptied it and are piling debt on our country for decades to come.

11. Getting rid of the beady eyed little
Hitler fucking clone. I hope they never show the man's face again, on TV, on the internet, or anywhere else.

I sure as hell hope to never hear the words "terra" or "murican" ever again.

instead of boycotting the economy... Wait, my accountant just told me that I didn't have the money to spend in the first place. I'm looking forward to a having a guy in the White House who has a clue.

43. Treason charges vs. Bushco and enjoying Presidential speeches
and press conferences where you actually get some intelligent answers to questions

Plus, no secret cabal meetings (no more secret Cheney "energy task forces" - can you say, oil companies free-for-all)

50. All the IMPORTANT topics have been hit
..so I'll be shallow in my answer.

I look forward to having a President and Veep who look good, very attractive in fact, rather than a leper version of Alfred E. Neuman (what has happened to *'s face??) and a cleaned-up Orc in a suit.

Someone whose thought process is even SOMEWHAT logical!

Being evil's a nice bonus.

GOD I hope he wins (and he's going to - I really can feel it!).
