Two days before the '04 election I was eating pizza and drinking beer at a local (Beverly MA) restaurant. Reading the Sunday paper. A couple guys at the bar (this place lets you eat at bar if you wish) are talking about how great it's gonna be when Kerry wins. I do a slow burn and think how great it's gonna feel when Bush wins re-election, and I only wish now I could have been a fly-on-the-wall to witness the agony those two moonbats were going through, wherever they were, on Election Night!

My fave news story, which I've referenced many times (use "Kerry party tears bitterness" in search engine):

Boston (CNSNews.com) - As President George Bush edged closer to the 270 electoral votes necessary to secure re-election, supporters of Democratic nominee John Kerry openly wept and consoled each other at the Election Night celebration in Boston's Copley Square. Some Kerry supporters called Bush's platform "all lies" and heckled a group of College Republicans who were passing through the crowd.

A distraught woman confronted Democratic U.S. Rep. Harold Ford in the lobby of the Fairmont Copley Plaza Hotel and screamed, "Can you tell me why everybody made a mistake?" Ford responded, "Let me talk to the candidate before I make a comment. It's been a long day."

Another woman standing near Ford began to openly weep at the prospect of a Kerry loss.

When CNSNews.com asked (Gray Davis) why he had confidently predicted a Kerry victory just a few hours earlier, Davis responded, "I, like many people saw the exit polls, which saw Kerry ahead in every battleground state. We believed they were a precursor of a great evening."

("Can I be the first to call you--Mr. President?"--Bob Shrum.)

(Article describes Kerry fans as being arrogant and calling Bush supporters stupid.)

Another man shouted to the Republicans "This is why the rest of the world calls us ignorant Americans. You obviously don't read the newspapers or you would not believe as you do."

A woman, unhappy the Republicans were there, screamed, "someone shut up those idiots.' (speak for yourself, lady!)

Brian Henchey, one of the College Republicans marching through the crowd told CNSNews.com that he had "never seen more sad and depressed faces in my life than what I have seen here in Copley Square tonight."

Kerry supporters from Ireland weighed in on why they believe Bush will likely be re-elected.

"It clarifies the fact that American people aren't so smart. If I could, I would have voted for Kerry," said the woman.
