I actually heard someone refer to Tuesday as an "Overwhelming win." Okay, let's break it down: The margin was 2%. That's it. 2% of those who voted did so for Bush more than Kerry. How the hell does that translate into overwhelming? More people voted against him than ever voted FOR a presidential candidate up until this year. Are you still going to call this a mandate? And when did it become an American value to cheer for a one-party rule, with virtually no checks or balances?
Just remember: You now have to be right 100% of the time for the next four years. Anything that goes wrong from now until 1/19/2009 is your fault, and you'll have no one to blame because you control all branches of government.
