Do the math.

I am quite aware of the math, but thanks for the lesson. I am fully aware of how hard it is to get anything done in this country while we are so divided.


I was talking about the 20 Dem's that voted against the bill and how the voters in those states who voted them in may feel disenfranchised come '08.

Don't think my dreams are all Technicolor now. You told me to get some sleep when I wanted to start a prediction on who will win in '08 yet you're already predicting the Republicans don't have a chance. How are you so sure? A lot can happen between now and then. I think the Dem's have the upper hand right now, but I don't think the deal is sealed for them. A lot can happen.

It was widely speculated here in '04 that Kerry was going to win, when in months in advance I KNEW he didn't have a chance.

But it would be more encouraging if the rest of the electorate proved a bit more savvy than you appear to be.

Are you sure about that? America voted for Bush twice, but I only did once.
