"
and don't forget that drunk-off-her-a$$-Susan-ugly-face on with Brit declaring she KNEW, she HAD confirmation John Kerry had won the election! Idiots!"
LOL!
Poor Susan Estridge:
"Fox had Susan Estridge on Tuesday night. This was after 50% or so of the Ohio vote was in and Bush was up by 130K.
In her inimitable way, she described how the Dems had the vote figured in such a way as to have Kerry winning the state, on the strength of high turnout in Cleveland and other urban districts. It was all plausible enough to have Britt Hume and the rest of the talking heads chewing over the possibility of waiting for the upper mid-west for a decision in this election.
It appears that what the Democrats didn't count on was the enormous turnout in the Republican counties. Precincts that went for Bush by 5K in 2000 returned margins more than twice as large this time. Once again, we saw the conventional wisdom proved wrong in an American Presidential election. This time the error was in thinking that a high turnout automatically favored the Democrat and the challenger. Somewhere in the chaos of the early afternoon predictions of John Kerry's coming success, I heard one east coast prof say that "so many people wouldn't turn out just to say 'good job, Mr President.'" Maybe not, but they clearly turned out to say "No you don't, Mr gay-loving, abortion-mongering, defeat-peddling *liberal*!" The fact is that, while the Democrat's base was energized by the close election in 2000, and by hatred for George W. Bush, the Republican base was at least equally energized, and there are slightly, but significantly more of them now."

The very thought of President Bush wining that second term was enough to drive her to drink that day.
Lol! You have provided a much more eloquent and factual account than I...unfortunately, I think for eternity THAT voice and THAT image will be SEARED, SEARED I say, in my election 2004 memory! UGH!
