136K votes have "set the agenda" for the next 4 years in media
Advertisements [?]
Kerry wins Ohio, and all the media would be talking about ISSUES that affect us ALL, instead of this values mumbo-jumbo.

It's all just a clever way to say NOTHING about things that affect and unite us. So for the next 4 years we can all contemplate our navels and wonder why we are not a better society.

We should be talking about how massive the turn out was and about important things will be getting the proper scrutiny from now on.

What we will actually be getting is just more Oprah & Dr.Phil claptrap about how we need to improve ourselves. The blame for the election fiasco #3 will be placed fully on the backs of the poor voters who did their level best to correct a huge wrong, and were repaid with treachery and chicanery.

The media will continue to pit the various groups against each other, because a divided people cannot EVER agree long enough to actually get important things done.

Meanwhile *² and his pals will be flying just below the radar while we are all distracted.

Three & a half years from now we will again start to focus on what remains of our country, but by then will it even be there?
