At the risk of being labeled an inveterate pessimist, as we approach what may prove to be the most critical election day in our republics history, I cannot help but feel a sense of discouragement about Americas future (accompanied, of course, by the knowledge that He works in miracles, so nothing is ever hopeless).
As I see it, we will witness one of three likely outcomes of the November 2nd vote:
(1) If the election is close, the thousands of leftist trial lawyers hired by the DNC and/or Kerry/Edwards, who are already gearing up to take this election out of the hands of the American citizenry and place it in the hands of activist judges, will shift into high gear, and begin an all-out effort to use a combination of validating massive voter fraud, and fabricating pseudo-legal accusations against Bush/Cheney forces, to steal this election. They are preparing to make Florida 2000 look like a romp in the park.
I find it fascinating, although certainly not out of character for these supposed defenders of truth and justice, that they and their kind despise and defile Richard Nixon, whose only major offense was the attempted cover-up of a third-rate political burglary. And yet, faced with the prospect of unveiling blatant voter fraud in Illinois and Texas, without which he may well have been the victor over Kennedy in 60, Nixon, rather than contest the votes in those highly suspicious precincts vote counts, passively accepted the highly questionable results. The reason: he did not want to put our republic through the kind of cataclysmic Constitutional crisis that would have ensued.
Fast forward forty-four years and we have the same party that was the source of the questionable vote counts in both Chicago and Houston/Dallas, not only not seeking to avoid such a Constitutional crisis, but scheming feverishly, days before the votes are even cast, to see to it that one occurs. Why? Because they are enemies of the Constitution, and will stop at nothing to see to it that an ultra leftist (who, by definition, harbors no allegiance to anything but a globalist utopian agenda) sits in the White House. The Constitution and Americas sovereignty and security be damned.
If Tuesday sees the above scenario, we may not know the results of this election until well into the month of December, when the electoral college must meet to choose the new leader of the free world.
(2) If Kerry/Edwards are victorious on the 2nd, the voters of America (although probably not a majority of them since a statistically significant number of dead people, house pets, felons, illegals, and people with multiple residences will have cast their votes for the democrat ticket) will have voted on the basis of superficial, Madison-Avenue-created, sound bite knowledge that bears no resemblance to truth. The majority of Kerry/Edwards votes will have been cast -- thanks to a combination of voter apathy and rampant media bias -- without the benefit of a genuine knowledge of the democrat candidates decades-long resumes that exhibit an unambiguous adherence to a treasonous, anti-American agenda.
(3) Bush/Cheney will be victorious. This will be a remarkable outcome (occurring in spite of all borderline criminal machinations), and will only occur if the Republican tickets genuine support is nothing short of landslide proportions, the likes of which could not even be negated by massive voter fraud and pre-election plans to steal the electoral votes of swing states whose totals appear close.
But, even if Bush/Cheney are victorious, we cannot long rest on our laurels and assume that all is well. Far from it.
After an election loss, leftists do not simply lick their wounds and accept the voice of the people. And the stakes in this election will magnify beyond all reason the leftist penchant to attack, subvert and destroy those who took victory from their grasp. Elitists, after all, were destined to rule, to dictate, to dole out largesse to the masses. And when the masses do not place them in the positions of power to which they have been called, elitists become enraged, and insatiably vindictive. Civility and law/truth/justice will find themselves obscured by the obsession to gain the power that was not won through the normal channels that representative republican government supplies.
The mainstream media will be relentless in the criticisms, attacks, and counterfeit stories aimed at the President and his lame-duck administration (After all, what price has Dan Rather played for his unprofessional, agenda-driven reporting of the Bush/National Guard memos story? The collective long-term yawn with which the public has reacted to his journalistic charlatanism has simply provided the unaccountable media a green light for more of the same).
Even small errors of judgment on the part of this President will be grotesquely magnified so as to rise to the level of an impeachable offense. And the war on terror especially that portion of it occurring within the borders of Iraq will be consistently painted with a broad black brush, with the objective of portraying it as Bushs Waterloo, and Americas final imperialistic failure.
No matter the results of this election, the one and only thing that can prevent the ultimate success of the leftist agenda, many more horrifying terrorist attacks within our borders, and the eventual demise of the glorious American experiment, is the American citizen.
If the polls are accurate, a man who is seeking the Presidency of a nation he loathes is at least within striking distance of a leader who, although his domestic policy weaknesses are numerous, has conducted the war on terror, and the beginnings of the rebuilding of a liberated nation, with something close to brilliance. It would appear that the average American citizen needs either a more responsible, realistic set of priorities, or to spend significant time contemplating the serious, prophetic warning of one of our visionary Founders:
No people will tamely surrender their liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and virtue is preserved. On the contrary, when people are universally ignorant they will sink under their own weight without the aid of foreign invaders Samuel Adams in a letter to James Warren, 4 November, 1775

The wildcard is the amount of 'rat vote fraud. I think they could fraud their way up 2-3% in key states with massive urban vote fraud.
Just read the title PING!
I see an outside shot at a silver lining. If the war with islamofascism really ramps up with events beyond 9-11, Americans will sweep the left into the gutter. One way or the other.
In the end, ten million scoped deer rifles just won't be silenced. Push comes to shove, the traitors have nowhere to hide.
Herein lies the unvarnished truth of the matter:
"If the enemy is composed of men who will stop at nothing, who are willing to die and to kill, then you must find men to fight on your side who will do the same. Only those who have mastered ruthlessness can defend their society from the ruthlessness of others."
I believe George Bush will win convincingly on Nov 2; that we will not have to endure endless challenges to the election. JMO. But the attacks on our culture and its traditional values will not abate just because the Bolsheviks happened to lose a critical election.
They have played along with the free and open election process while they were able, by hook or crook, to win most of the time. Their agenda relentlessly being propogated and legitimized by their propagandists in the media. Even so, they are now faced with a majority of the electorate that apparently has their number. What to do?
They will not quit. They have a world to conquer, and America is in the way. Can you just imagine their angst; one puny little country in the whole world holding back the tide of totalitarianism? That would be us; you and me and roughly 100 million other similarly minded Americans. Nothing new here, right?
Bottom line, this enemy will stop at nothing, so what alternatives are left with? We are fast approaching the elimination of all but one. I don't know who said it, but paraphrased: "If there is to be war, let it be in my lifetime, so that my children will not have to fight it." I agree. I'm tired of making nice with those that would subjugate me and mine.

Yer welcome...didn't want you to miss this one...MUD
We can learn a lesson from the swiftvets - publish the truth about this campaign. Create DVDs of the insane screaming matches and wild accusations. The democrats need reformed: I believe in 2 healthy parties but where we stand now, we are divided by white and black... I'd even go so far to say evil and good.
My faith has taught me that evil people who deceive will eventually expose their interiors to all.
No matter how this election turns out, you have cornered the most frightening aspect of this campaign. Where does that leave us in possible future campaigns when someone with Kerry's background, who shouldn't even be considered candidate material, has made such a strong run?
The right has a corner on "right" but we've lost our resoluteness. If we hadn't, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in. Unfortunately, Free Republic isn't representative of the rest of the country.
All this talk of civil war presumes that the country gives a damn. Yes, there are those of us (I include myself with you) who would welcome the thought of civil war over the ugly alternatives, but we are only about 2% of the population. The rest would prefer chains. It won't be much of a fight with those odds.
Joanie, Thanks for the ping.
Cindy, Say HI to two of the best and brightest on FR.
Joanie and Jeff,
Great analysis by both of you.
It's only been in the last 72 hours that I have decided to vote for "W" again because I had been so angry over his domestic policies.
To paraquote another Freeper in a private email: "Our house is afire. A vote for Kerry throws gasoline on the fire. A vote for Bush adds some logs to the fire. Not as bad, but it doesn't help."
We have to hold all of our representatives to account or else it won't matter if we got gasoline or just wood. The house will be reduced to ashes in either case.
I second that, Mud !! :^DThanks for the thread, Joanie.
(3) Bush/Cheney will be victorious. This will be a remarkable outcome (occurring in spite of all borderline criminal machinations), and will only occur if the Republican tickets genuine support is nothing short of landslide proportions, the likes of which could not even be negated by massive voter fraud and pre-election plans to steal the electoral votes of swing states whose totals appear close.
To ALL Freepers and Lurker voters:
GO to the polls and vote for Bush. Take your friends with you to do the same. If you know any Zell Miller type Democrats that support Bush and they are voting for him, take them as well.
Vote EARLY to avoid the rush. If you wait until November 2nd, make SURE to go and vote!! And if you do wait until November 2nd, remember:
IGNORE ANYTHING IN THE MEDIA YOU HEAR (i.e., making a fast, early call in Florida for Kerry, etc.). WE CAN AVOID A REPEAT OF THE FLORIDA ELECTION DEBACLE OF 2000 THIS YEAR IF GOP TURNOUT IS STRONG, imho.
[Expletive deleted] !!!
Some of us have, some of us haven't...on Tuesday, we'll find out which group is in the majority.

This election will be close, whether it's by hook or by crook.
We will see legions of Democrat trial liers fanning out across the fruited plain. If you all recall 'Wizard of Oz' flying monkey scene? It'll look something like that.
I look for the Rats to pull out all the stops next week.
Regardless of the outcome of this election:
The democrat party is going to get get VERY nasty. You can bank on it.
A perfect picture!
Your know, for a split second I believed that to be a real, undoctored picture. It just goes to show you my opinion of the left.
LOL! :^D
Let's see if we can talk some of FR's very talented graphics artists into doing a spoof on this! How about it Registered, Sloth, Meek?
