How is this not a big victory for Bush?
None | 11/3/04 | Me

Posted on 11/03/2004 1:29:02 AM PST by Hermann the Cherusker

Bush wins 286-252, with nearly a 4 million popular vote margin, 51.5%-48.1%, with the largest popular vote total ever in American history.

Bush generally +5% nationwide in popular vote totals by state. PA and MI very close despite record Philly and Detroit turnouts.

Bush aides Mel Martinez and Mitch Daniels win election.

Republicans +4 in Senate.

Republicans +3 in House.

Republicans +1 in Governorships.

Republicans up in state legislatures.

Little Tommy Daschle loses.

This is a huge, huge, huge Republican win tonight!

Congratulations everyone!

David Vitter winning outright in LA is a huge pick up. The first republican senator since reconstruction.

It's even bigger because everybody except the DemocRATS see it!

Their delusional denial is a beautiful sight to behold!

It's a huge victory and they are doing everything possible to blunt it. But it's so big that they're stone out of luck.

Coors' defeat was a disappointment in CO but overall it was a fantastic night.

Thank you God!! In spite of the fact that I suspect that the Communists (aka Democratics) committed massive vote fraud, Bush has a clear victory when you take into account the Republican congressional gains. America has collectively given the finger to the Islamofascists. God Bless America!

Out of curiousity, how many fraudulent votes do you guess were cast for Kerry. I would guess at least 1 million.

The best scenario imaginable, once these last EV bugs are worked out. The President won PV and EV, which is super. Senate gains were on the high scale. Insiders were talking about +1. I like that Vitter got > 50%. That was extraodinary. Usually it always goes to a runoff which we lose. Mitch Daniels, new Gov of Indiana is neat, and so is Bobby Jindal's house seat. Martinez - fantastic. Thune is icing on the cake and Murkowski finally ran out of her father's shadow.

I noticed it but didn't mention it on FR but early in the afternoon, Crush Kerry's insiders from the House GOP told them to expect a Bush loss. That was just terrible but no-one else noticed or mentioned it. The morale was just horrible on these boards anyway. I am so grateful and thankful to God the evening worked out like it did. It's the power of prayer that did it, I believe.

Considering a trillion dollars to buy votes, a nation at war, and a joke of an opponent in a bunny suit, I'd say it's a very poor showing. He hasn't even gone over 270 EV's yet. Compare this to the Republican landslides of 1972 and 1984.
