And the people were overwhelmingly against the aggression against Iraq.
And they voted out the party which led them into war.
Said party projected to lose, but not by that much.
And that, somehow, isn't right?
Man, you may have some real problems in the US in November. And, I wouldn't be surprised if some crisis weren't drummed up between now and then. A major terrorist act, or if not that watch for the demonizing, and see who Bush declares aggression against next. But GWB will want a crisis so he can be a wartime President.
I'd give you odds on that. And the American people could still vote him out. It's tough, because the Rs have learned to storm the vote counting offices and throw the election to the Supreme Court.
Wonder if that is their strategy - to foul up the election, the votes they can't electronically steal, and get it into Scalia's hands? Could be.

I know you're not saying that they should forgo the voting and stick with the polls.
