OK, probably 2 sides to the story. I hope you're doing the right thing.

I'll read the info I got from another person, too. Looks like a lot.

We do need to talk to each other, you know. I don't know where you live, but people in the cities are ***SCARED*** of getting hit again. Lots of tears that night. You won an election, but the two sides will have to convince each other that they're reasonable human beings if we are to get through the next four years.

We can disagree, that's OK, but we are not enemies.

McGovern got his ass whooped, but Vietnam was still stopped. Our opinion does mean something, but I think as long as we are convinced that the country has not gone mad, we'll do what's best for the country.

Ok. I definitely agree that there needs to be more dialogue between the 2 parties. If we fail to understand each other's points-of-view, then we'll just drift farther and farther apart.

What turns off those of us on the right is when people like Al Gore get up on stage and start raging about how "Bush lied" or how "He betrayed this country". That's deceptive, takes advantage of people's emotions, and drives a wedge between liberals and conservatives.

As a side note: nearly all conservatives that I've talked to really like Joe Liebermann. He loves this country and when the chips are down, he's willing to stand up and defend it. We didn't vote for him in 2000 because Gore is a prick. Take a lesson from that. If you want to win back voters, get away from Michael Moore and start learning from Joe.

"Mcgovern got his ass whooped, but Vietnam was still stopped. Our opinion does mean something.." Vietnam was STOPPED? In that statement you betray your inability to come to a sound judgement, in terms of national self interest, or by broader moral criteria, even after thirty freakin years. I don't think your time here tonite is going to be to much avail.
