So you think Kerry took a dive? Like Sonny Liston, took the hope flickering in the hearts of the poor, the unemployed, 
disempowered, young and old and flopped onto the canvas.  After that whole time telling us it was on the way. That it got way closer than they thought they would get. 

The plan was to send up any punching bag and got away from them as the Republicrats were even lamer then we all thought they were. Mr. Rove's genius was in goading them into playing with his ball, his rules. What happened to the environment, what about standing up for diversity?

It got to close, how could they run Hillary in four years with Kerry and Edwards in office, they can?t both have a plane wreck. At the earliest she would have to wait 8 years. That would make it messy and there would be no way to hold the shaky party together for that long. More proof that the TOO party system is a dinosaur waiting for the ice age.

In the face of voter spoiling, exit polls of provision ballot voters, he caved just hours after Edwards vowed to fight for every last voter. Couldn't they have just pause for 72 hours and let it play out, show a little grace and go low key.

The networks would have loved it; they had contracted teams of people anyway. All those reporters and technical teams ready to work on speculation. The 20,000 lawyers we all heard about scattered around the country with their trigger fingers itching needing something to do, they craved it, ready to claw at the story turn up the nastiness of the administration. He caved.

So you can make hillbilly jokes about the right wing Christians all afraid of ken dolls getting married but that?s just to convenient. It also isn?t good math. Master Rove pulled the fear strings, fear of a gay Osama wanting to get married and blow you up. A roadside make-out bomb, a dance party jihad complete with thongs and turbans, can you hear that train a comin?.

We bought it America, it will take a couple of months for the polls to creep the other way, they will though. That bulge in the middle of America is so malleable, pray for art that illuminates, for the truth to sneak out unfiltered. George Bush is right now more than ever we need to ask, ?God, please bless America.?
