Thanks for posting this.
Why isn't this on the news board?!?!
This is the first liberal article to show some indication of understanding.
On Nov. 2, 60.6 million Americans returned Bush to the White House. The Ohio vote is still being scrutinized. Naturally, Kerry won his home state, receiving 1.7 million votes or 62 percent of the ballots cast in Massachusetts. But, pass the Prozac: 1 million Bay Staters voted for Bush, giving him 200,000 more votes in the state than he received in 2000.
If Democrats persist in stereotyping the Bush 2004 voter, they will never figure out how to win back voters in 2008, like the woman described above. Registered as an independent, she voted for Al Gore in 2000 and holds a professional job in a bastion of local liberalism. But traditional Democratic constituencies -- women, minorities, and labor -- no longer perform like trained seals. They need reason beyond party affiliation to vote for any presidential candidate.
