1. We did have a shot

Bush didn't exactly win in a landslide.

2. When he was first selected

I thought he would fuck up and bring such disgrace on his party that Republicans would be unelectable for years to come. I didn't think there was a chance he would serve a second term.

3. Four years ago

Yeah, I thought he would. During the primaries, I didn't think anybody had a chance.

4. absolutely

I figured 4 years of these criminals would convince even their base to revolt

there i go misoverestiminating the wrong intelligence of the Murkan public again.

I had reservations about two things:

Those who risk executing a coup do not put their power in the fickle hands of the voting peasantry (which they didn't)

The 2000 coup institutionalized a level of cooruption and voting fraud for them to expand on (which they did)

5. It was all going downhill until 9/11...

And then all of a sudden he was a fucking hero.

7. You're joking, right?

Four years ago I said if the Dems don't win Florida in 2004, they should disband.
