Election 2004
The fears of many have turned out to be well founded. We have yet another election, the result of which cannot be determined with certainty on Election Day.
That being said, I fully expect - as I have expected throughout most of this election cycle - that the election will result in a victory for Pres. George W. Bush, a majority (for the first time since 1988) of the popular vote for Bush, and net seat gains for the Republicans in both the House and the Senate.
I hope and pray that Sen. Kerry and the Democrats do not decide to mount pointless challenges that, at this point, can only serve to delay the inevitable. It is time to move forward and I believe that many Americans are ready to put the campaign behind them. ( Nov 03 2004, 06:45:39 AM PST ) Permalink Comments [2]
