who will be the biggest sore losers, us or them?
we have to think about both: victory and defeat. i wonder which party, in defeat, will be the biggest sore losers?

and i wonder how that sore loser status will affect the vanquished?
one might imagine the rightwingers being nastier than the lefties, but who knows? things change.

4 years ago, i thought we were quite amiable and gracious losers, but this time, under the same scenario, i don't know.

i'm ready to be pretty pissed off i know that. and even if we win, we have one hell of a fight on our hands, coming soon. repubs are famous sore losers, look what they did to Bill. only now, they have the neocons under cheney and rove. they are a dangerous group of thugs and they have a very loyal following of rabid and ready sore losers.

2. They also have assault weapons now
Cheney's prediction of increased terrorism if Kerry wins may just come true.

3. I don't know. Last night on Lou Dobbs, he asked the qiuestion:
If the candidate you support looses, will you support the one who was elected. The answer ws 69% WOULD NOT!

It doesn't surprise me, but it's very scary!!!

4. Them..because we are going to win!
On Lou Dobbs last night they said that about 60 percent of respondents to their online poll would NOT work to help unify the country if their candidate loses.

5. Them...
And I'm pretty worried about it.

I am embarrassed to say that I hope Kerry will toss them a few bones.

* a moment of silence in schools for individual/optional prayer
* increased funding for abortion-alternative programs
* updated adoption and fostering rules and funding for adoption and fostering by relatives

And I hope he'll toss those bones QUICKLY.

6. Only in 'New America' can the winner of the Popular Vote...
...be considered a 'loser'. The plain, unadulterated fact is that many more Americans voted for Gore and that Bush* was only able to take office because he had friends on the highest court.

- I have faith that the Left will be gracious losers if it's CLEAR that Bush* actually won. But I just don't see that happening.
