The "Incumbent Rule", true again in 2004.
Edited on Sun Jan-16-05 12:38 AM by RaulVB
Excellent piece that shows how "*" could not have possibly obtained the necessary votes to beat Kerry or how his approval ratings (below 50%) show he lost, or how on November 2nd, the undecided voters WHO BROKE FOR KERRY IN AN IMPRESSIVE MANNER gave the victory to Kerry.

Is written in 1989, where "*" was not involved in politics so the report is accurate.

Enjoy!

The undecideds did break for Kerry by a large margin. Funny, I could have sworn who ever took the undecideds was supposed to win.

Good article though. Add it to the official we got royally screwed collection.

It is nice to see Sen. Kerry making * look bad to the world.
First, * s**t on the world now * is going to do the same to us.
