The ultimate metaphor for this Bush victory - The Wild Ones
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 03:17 PM by Must_B_Free
In this film Johnny, (Marlon Brando), steals a motorcycle trophy that he didn't win and lashes it to the front of his motorcycle and drives around town trying to feel the pride of its owership, but he can't.

Bush ran the dirtiest campaign in recent history, John Kerry's war medals were effectively appropriated by Bush and put on his own chest.

He lost the debates and everyone knows he is a liar and a fake.

This is a hollow victory for Bush and nothing to really celebrate. I feel the same pity for his falseness that you feel for Johnny in the film.
