1. A colleague at work refused to listen to the debates
She said "the only thing I want to hear out of that man's mouth is
'I concede'. "

20. Tears
I'd like to see him tear up. I want his hardcord supporters see him for what he actually is...a basically weak man who repeates the mantra of "strength, resolution blah blah" to the point where so many people actually believe it. I don't say this with bitterness. I'm not bitter about GW. But I do think it is important for people to see him for who he really is.

9. Yes. That would be therapy for millions of people.
It would validate and vindicate our system of government. It would be the first step toward recovery.

10. I'm probably going to go to Florida to help GOTV
I just returned from New Mexico a few weeks ago doing the same.

I suggest everyone volunteer to GOTV also if they care about the future of the world.

The world is watching, and it's in our hands now.

McCain to concede.

38. I was going to say that too. I can't IMAGINE him conceding
defeat for a anything. If he HAS to do it, I'm sure we'll see REAL PAIN in his face--a look somewhere between rage and constipation!! Yeah Baby!!

16. But, unlike Poppy
he wasn't actually "elected." He'll go down in history with the badge of shame asterisk next to his name!

7. The perfect theater of a Bush concession speech...
... is the main thing keeping me from fully believing in my own "stick a fork in him" feelings. It would be just too perfect.

But then we've already been visited by one miracle this Fall, right Sox fans?

12. A Red Sox victory tonight would prove that miracles do happen.
A Kerry victory would prove there's hope for America.

15. I've already given four years of struggle. . .
a couple dozen yards of stomach lining, a good share of my serenity, and a very large sum of money. Today, I'll give my vote against him, on Tuesday I'll give the day to GOTV. . . what more do I need to give? I keep asking myself that, and each time I find another answer I give that, too.

Most important election since Mr Lincoln stood for his second term. And we're going to send the Bushbaby back to his pig farm. Kerry in a landslide. Tell everyone you know.

21. You can never give too much. I try to live by what Gandhi said:
You must be the change you wish to see in the world...

MK Gandhi


You must BE the CHANGE.

22. Moot point
I just CANNOT watch "it". Never have, never will. I must even confess that during the debates I had to zap somewhere else when it was its turn to eruct. I know, that 's not really democratic...

23. He won't give one.
Admit that he LOST??? No f'ing way he does that. He'll send Scott McClellan out to give a terse statement, but we won't see his ass on TV conceding squat.

27. my VOTE
my time and my energy. And I believe that if we all do that and get everyone we know to do that, we WILL be in for the tasty treat of a Boooosh concession speech (or what will pass for one, since he will probably pout and whine and not be very gracious.)

...I want to see him chopper off the South Lawn, enroute to Andrews to take him back to the pig farm on January 20th.

Then I'll believe this nightmare is really over.

29. Well, to start with I've already donated about $1,000 to the Dems
this year, plus countless hours of GOTV activity, and am flying into OH at the end of this week to help out for 4 days. Gawd I hope all this is enough! Otherwise, I'm going to be in bed for a week with a big headache!!! - K

39. He will go down kicking and screaming
I would give a hundred dollars to get some rotten eggs to throw at him, his fat assed Stepford frump and the two travelling trollops wherever they choose to park their sorry assed carcases after Kerry is elected.

(might have to take a loan)

There is nothing ahead for this family but tragedy and shame for all they have done.

40. I've already given more than I ever have before.
More money. More time. More words. More LTTEs. More phone calls to the media and to my reps. More emails to people. More petitions signed. More activism. More bumper stickers (on my car, plus the extras I've given out to people). More money to OTHER Dem candidates in addition to what I've donated to Kerry.

I want to be able to look myself in the bathroom mirror on November 3rd, come what may, and be proud. I figure - if bush steals another one, it will NOT be because I sat on my ass.

And if bush DOES steal it, I intend to get back to work, doing everything I can to throw as many monkeywrenches into his plans and operations as I can, as an individual. Because just about year six, it seems, presidents get in trouble. Happened for Nixon (Watergate), Reagan (almost was impeached for Iran/Contra), and Clinton (Monica). And LBJ only got about six years, period, before giving up in virtual defeat.
