You claim that it is faulty and I will agree that it is not fool proof, but it was accurate this time.

Are you gonna believe party or candidate propaganda that cries out that this seat or that is in jeopardy and then wins by 20 percentage points? That is just as unreliable and has the added 'quality' of being less than honest.

Fear is a powerful motivator and both parties are masters at stoking the emotions of their base with this technigue. I didn't (and don't) like Bush most of the time, but even I fell for the line that Kerry might end up winning and that repulsed me -- repulsed, not scared -- and I voted for Bush.

I would never vote for Kerry, but I would love to rescind my vote for Bush.

I have always tried to vote simply on principle. That is the only way that you don't really lose. But I have voted for the lesser of two evils. I won't do that anymore.

As to 'getting over it' - - -

Why? We are faced daily with the results of you people who think that supporting any "R" is a good plan. It doesn't take courage to vote for a party whose proclaimed prinicples are so broad as to be meaningless. Your plan will continue to bring us men such as Specter. Now he is in a postion to do the damage that no democrat senator could possibly have done.

Thanks for nothing.
