Kerry Concedes - half a nation cries
Well, the math was pretty hard to argue with and now we are officially on the road to the second 4 years of George W. Bush.
Of course, if you thought the first four years showed reckless disregard for what the rest of the world and progressive minded folks like myself thought...just wait until you see what GWB not needing to keep enough people happy to get re-elected will look like.
Thanks Ohio.

Speaking on behalf of Ohio: STOP BLAMING US! Ohio was not the only state to vote GWB (the big, dumb, megalomanic) into office! We had a near 50-50 split just like everyone else did. Just because we were the last state to make it official does not make it our fault.
As a rampant anti-Bush person myself, I HATE that GWB has been elected for another four years. I cried when the results came in.
If you want to blame anyone, blame the Democrats who nominated Kerry in the first place. It has been said over and over that if Bush had been running against any other Democrat, Bush would have lost. It was Kerry--specifically Kerry--that lost the Democrats the race. He had too many question marks. I voted for him, but a lot of other people who had doubts about Bush had bigger doubts about Kerry.
Ohio didn't make Kerry the Democratic candidate. We did, however, support him. Unfortunately, it just wasn't enough.
Sorry, vicki...I probably let my anger about the loss get the better of me...
Ohio wasn't the only state that went Red in the election...it just was the one the media made the scapegoat.
Let's hope the Dems can get their act together well enough to get their message properly communicated next time around.
Thanks for your input.
