It was a wild ride last night, but seeing Florida going our way was a good sign, and Ohio looked good when both Fox and NBC called it for Bush (Blather and Jennings didn't want to face reality I guess ).
Too bad the media didn't push sKerry to release ALL his military records by signing the form 180 (like Bush, and even Al Bore did). That would of made the election a lot easier to call

As a GWB supporter, I can say that I am glad it is finally over. It is time to put the division behind us and get on with the business at hand. Congrats to both President Bush and Mr. Kerry for having the class and decency that both have shown today.
To me, it shows that above all else, regardless of party affiliation, we are all Americans at the end of the day.

GWB won, congrats.
For the first time ever, a US election has been closely covered in France. Should one did not know anything, now she/he may knwow too much on everything ranging from the electoral votes to the parties' headquarters.
Furthermore, this country's two major TV Channels, namely TF1 and France 2 dispatched their top anchormen to air their news report live from New York and Washington repectively.
Now I wait with great interest 2008 as a real duel between two challengers is often a most interesting one to monitor.

I think 2008 will be Rudy Juliani for the Republicans and Hillary Clinton for the Democrats...
Just a hunch.

About the Democrats, I think this too. She has been showing a lot of interest for this job, too much interest to be seen as bona-fide innocent. Getting elected as a senator was just a step in getting closer. Would not be surprised to hear sooner or later that finally John Kerry's defeat was a good news for many Democrat top brass. About Rudolph, yeah maybe, perhaps age may be a con.

I'm not saying that Kerry and the Democrats didn't try this year- but I think it was part of an overall strategy to get Hillary into the Whitehouse in 2008. She is VERY popular throughout the country, particularly with women from both parties..
And Rudy, I think many people admire him for the way he handled the 9/11 situation...and he seems to be very popular wherever he goes.
I dunno. Guess we find out in 4 years.

Rudy Juliani"The Director also sets the record straight on what would happen if oxygen masks were to drop from the ceiling: The passengers freak out with abandon, instead of continuing to chat amiably, as though lunch were being served, like they do on those in-flight safety videos."
-- The LA Times, in a review of 'Flightplan'
