You are taking these early results way out of context. Relax, once the states with a huge number of electoral votes come into play, things will get a lot more intereting. It's not going to be bush by a land-slide if that is what your trying to imply.

as long as there is a clear winner tonight and his name is bush I will be happy

neither of the states called or in the state poll index thread

I mean that by, if he can get a couple more states, then people in California, Hawaii, and New Mexico, or Nevada,

that could polarize the people there in those states.

[whottt]

LOL you mean NY, Cali and DC are all voting Democrat?

[Uncle Donnie]

Uncle D do you think Rudy would win NY if he ran for Pres?

I could see that. I think Rudy G. would win in a landslide no matter who he ran against.

[whottt]

Yeah, I think he'd win NYC...and he'd win Texas as well...anyone that can carry Texas and NY is going to get the nomination from the Republicans unless they are fools...


Cheney has already said he won't run for President. So I really think Rudy will be the next Pres.
