consider this?
... "the iron laws of modern elections: incumbent presidents unopposed in the primaries go on to win the general; opposed incumbents lose.

Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan and Clinton won, easily. Ford (vs. Reagan), Carter (vs. Kennedy, and Bush (vs. Buchanan and Perot) lost their generals.

Bush looks pretty unopposed to me."

Granted, this is comment from a CBS "News" report about Demos fighting each other, but history shows bu$hit with no opposition would sail back in no matter what. Add to *that* the fact that the weasel and his Puke buddies have redistricted nationwide to dilute the Democratic vote, skewered the census numbers in order to maniuplate EC votes in their favour more, have Tom Ridge and MeatHead in Cali to deliver the EC votes from Penn and CA for him, is planning a nationwide 'voter cleansing list' just like the one used in FL - and just as erroneous, and has the electronic voting machinery all rigged by his friends in the voting machine business.

Looks all set to steal another election to me!

1. Gore won the last time ,if you count the votes.
What new groups do you see the deserter bringing to the dance? Old folks are not falling for his BS. Young people are becoming more well informed. The Military? Which military, Rummys or America's? Only way the neo/repub party gets back in is to steal it or declare marshall law.

steal it and/or declare martial law. With the voter cleansing lists being used nationwide, the redistricting that has been allowed to go on to dilute the Dem votes, the rigged (or at least insecure) voting machines that are too easily tampered with, the erroneous census, MeatHead in Cali and Tom Ridge from PA to yank in those ECs from Cali and PA - bu$hit has it stolen already, practically.

But, you do have a point in that the weaselly little man didn't win in 2000, people were smarter than that. I guess we can hope a few of them have gotten 'wiser', too, now that they've seen what *resident f*ck-up has done to this country.
