Post-Election Day, 2004: Pt IV

[grrgoyl]

This is the point that is getting lost in all the Bush victory hoo-ha.   "The people have spoken."  No, Georgie.  HALF the people have spoken. The other half still can't stand you.   "Bush won the majority of votes."   Ehhhhh....I wouldn't consider a 3% victory a majority (actually only 2% if you count Nader's 1%).   That's a majority like women are the majority of the population.   That's more like...an edge.   That's like winning by a nose in a horse race.   Like the gold medalist finishing 0.05 seconds ahead of the silver.   And it is not, by any stretch of the imagination, an ass-kicking.   Let's keep that in mind before we start rubbing noses, people.
