Did anyone see the colored map that Hannity showed on TV today. It was a colored map of red and blue of every town and burrough in the USA. Other than a few blue dots in NE and west coast, that whole map was virtually all red. That is saying something.

Rove correctly assessed that there was no significant "center" in this race. kerry's advisors kept chasing phantom votes that really weren't there. this race was a "base battle".
karl rove planned a masterful campaign that was executed brilliantly. thank you, Mr Rove.

"...advised him to shore up the base at the expense of swing voters -- a decision that led to Bush's endorsement of a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, his commitment of federal funds to faith-based charities, and his unapologetic embrace of the doctrine of preemptive war in Iraq."
The Boston Globe should realize that SWING voters are not SWINGER voters.
Some people may have strayed from their faith and don't go to church every Sunday but they still honor their parents and know right from wrong.
The writing is on the wall that same sex marriage will become a nationally recognized thing (only a year after homosexual sodomy was made a constitutional right; prostitution which is a sex act in private between consenting adults is still ILLEGAL as is adult incest).
How many challenges will there be for churches to permit same sex ceremonies (in violation of the Biblical record)?
The "church" has become a joke because of the advocacy of abortion, same sex relations (there can be no intercourse without complementary genitalia), and even the tolerance of extramarital sex.
We are all sinners but the acceptance of those who continue to sin (and raise up their vices) is against the Bible. Those who have sex outside of wedlock generally cease when they marry (adultery is a sin noted in the 10 commandments even). Those who seek abortions generally are not married (at least to the father).
Same sex couples will always be sodomites. Does a "ceremony" make it right in the eyes of God?

At some point in time these liberal writers will stop with the "Bush won in spite of himself" dribble and start printing the real story; the Democrats are becoming more and more out of touch with mainstream American who have had enough with their liberal social agenda and are starting to push back. The story isn't about the White House. The story is about the gains in the Senate and House where Republican have now gained a stronger hold.

After all, an energized political ''base" does not waver if the candidate loses a few debates. Some of us don't feel he LOST the debates.
Dumb questions hardly deserve deep answers. I agree that some of the questions were incredulous to ask at times (especially in light of earlier answers). "What are you, a dumbass???"

Bush's margin in Texas and Georgia (2.24 million) was larger than Kerry's margin in California and New York (2.20 million).

I'm thinking back to the polls after the 3rd debate that showed a nice bump for Bush. Kerry's spinners were dismissing it, saying "so he fired up his base and he'll get a few more people in Texas to vote for him. So what, we weren't going to win a state like Texas anyway". So the democrats KNEW that Bush was firing up his base and they thought "So what? Bush needs swing voters, not more base voters" but this was the Rove strategery all along. GET THE BASE TO TURN OUT. And, boy, did they.
I recall hearing Dick Morris say at one point "The Bush people are playing chess, while Kerry's people are playing checkers". That's an excellent analogy.

And, just like four years ago, he lost the Northeast and the West Coast -- including such large states as California, New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey -- by almost exactly the same margins as in 2000. If it was for the Big Cities ... Kerry would have lost many of those states

IMO - there was (at least) one big domestic "conservative" issue that KILLED Kerry with people who do not feel they are conservative -- or Republican -- at all!
He voted 6 TIMES not to ban partial birth abortion.
I know a great many pro "choice" people, men and women. Except for one "woman rights nut" (never married and never pregnant), to a person (including supporters of NARAL!) they felt that PBA was killing a child...not a fetus! With modern medicine making premature babies able to survive with fewer and fewer weeks in the womb, those aware of what is done -- even in the pro-choice mind -- it is completely different.
80% of ALL people are against it. Far more than 50% are EXTREME in that feeling.
Also, real "strong family" PARENTS do not want to be blocked from knowing if THEIR teenage girl is about to get an abortion.

Best of the Web Today (and a FReeper whose name I forget) actually looked at Bush's numbers, and in every state but Vermont, Bush actually increased his percentages in the blue states.
