Who do you want to be our next President?

I hope it doesn't go the way it just looked when I cast my vote!!!

Funny - my though was just the opposite!

Results are lookin' good, let's hope it's like this tonight.

I'm dreading the outcome.
I think the protest vote ('I know nothing about Kerry but I hate Bush!') will really screw this one.
I think it will be a replay of 2000 where we won't know for weeks.

my prediction as to the outcome?

not even close electorally but extremely close popularly again. The key being voter turnout....

.....people are STILL pissed about the way the last one turned out, especially in Florida and I just think that may motivate some people who otherwise might not have voted to get to the polls.

Kerry, by crushing electoral vote landslide.

tens of thousands of lawyers will be ready this evening if any election legal battles break out...

Closing the gap!!!!

This is some scary Kerry stuff man.

I read this morning on MSN that they already had electronic voting machines in Florida malfunction today.
AMAZING
Looking at this poll, I'm pleased with what I see. I can't express how much I dislike Bush!
My 2 cents worth.

This damn state...

------------------------------------------------------------

This state is dominated by the 'enlightened', Liberal Emotionally-based logic from that spews from the Peoples Republic of Seattle--That's why they have a 16 foot statue of Vladimir Lennon in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood.

It doesn't surprise me that this state would vote for John Kerry.

Washington after all was only one of two or three states in the nation to be 'enlightened' enough to vote for Jimmy Carter instead of Ronald Reagan in 1980 and Michael Dukakis in 1988.

If anyone can watch this FREE Stolen Honor video and still vote for that John Kerry.......WOW!

Fortunately then and hopefully now the rest of the country knew/will know better than the 'enlightened' emotional-based liberals that think our country and the great state of Washington will be made safer and run better by the likes of Jimmy Carter, Michael Dukakis and now Carter's and Dukakis' political soulmate John Kerry.

Washington... Love it or leave it!

Now where have I heard a slogan like that before? :rolleyes:

But hey... it actually has a nice ring to it... huh Rory? :p

Where ever you drop bait in Puget Sound the mudsharks show up.

Is that John Lennon's dad? Seattle IS a musical city.


A little early to be a sore loser isn't it, Rory?

Hey Canyon Man...

You should have also had each person that voted, pick which part of the state they live in.

I think it would have been like the national map... the smallest area would have been blue....

Just a thought.

I'm not sure how you guys/gals can argue so compasionately about this one.

It's like electing to get lung cancer or heart disease. Nobody in their right mind would want either one.

Lookin' Good

My feelings exactly Duc!

Holy cow Rory....

You know, the reason your posts don't get much reply is because unlike most, you don't state your leanings, followed by your opinion, followed by rationale/justification. That's what sparks the warm, lively, heated, white hot debate you often see on the board. No, you simply spew this far right stuff, usually from some rightish article/publication without even bothering to state an opinion on how it affects things.

I'm a little surprised at the polling numbers...must be some closet demos out there. I say this because although my leanings are a little left of center, most of my river buds are to the right. Don't matter when fishing, its all good. Somehow I don't believe you would agree with that.

Kerry scares me!

Kerry's wife scares me.

"Nobody in their right mind would want either one"

We seem to have similar perspectives, Sol, although from what you've said we probably cancelled each other out. This is one I'm not too excited about learning the results of.

At least Ms. Kerry doesn't have the personality of a rock like Ms. Bush. Ask yourself have you ever seen a more invisible first lady as Ms. Bush?? :rolleyes:

I wonder if there is any correlation with the fact that Seattle is one of the most educated cities in the US...Smart people for KERRY!

Howdy fellers!
Been lurking but had to register just to vote. Hope to go fishin if SKERRY wins. Guarantee to go fishin If W takes it.

LMAO!

"Which nad would you like to be kicked in? Left one, or Right one?"

Either way at the end of the day, we're all gonna be saying "OUCHIE!"

I think there's a haiku in there somewhere!

BD,

I have know idea of what your idea of smart is.

An election limmerick inspired by Parker:

There once was a presidential election
Our country torn in opposing directions
The choice was so bad, like getting kicked in the nads
Without any kind of protection.

Thank you Skywalker. I can go to sleep tonight feeling *OK* about my vote now (seriously).

P.S. It's funny to me that 149 people have voted in this pole so far, yet only 61 have voted in the thread at the top of the page.

I'm inspired by 4salt's post. No more posting your politcal opinion unless you can put it to some form of poetry.

Rhetoric is thick.
Kerry or Bush president?
go out and vote now!

If I could vote, I'd want to vote for Kerry.

Being close to seventeen, I have reason to fear a draft and I believe Bush is much more likely to reinstate the draft.

Also, Bush has showed me he doesn't give a rats@$$ about the enviroment.

Neither of them are a Teddy Roosevelt or Abe Lincon, but I think Kerry would do better than Bush.

CM-
You left many choices out, at the very least you could have included 'Other.'

I voted for Micheal Badnarik (Libertarian).

One more note, I must say that seeing this astronomical voter turnout is pretty damn cool. I remember 2-3 elections back, many people were very apathetic and did not care to vote. The low voter turnouts of elections past (aside from '00) was very sad to see.....it is nice to see America cares again.

GO KERRY!

Looks like the PP polll reflects the national numbers to a tee. Bush 52-48 victory for both the popular and electoral vote.

go GW........four more years

hey ...drifter i'll leave when i want to ..... and i'll vote for who I want to regardless of what you think. GO BUSH ........

lol
hey drifter
when you get out of your diapers?
when you quit working for DQ?
maybe
maybe?
i'll listen to your politcal view:)

I was reading earlier about an "additional" 8 or 10 electorals Bush got because of a "change in population"...how is that? Sounds like more F-911 GW scam.

Does look like Bush has got it again tho. With all the war scams, debt, and environmental disaster he's created people are still voting him back in, incredible. In some ways tho its fitting, he got us into this record debt, now he can get us out of it.
