CNN: Bush will claim mandate

[derbstyron]

John King: With these results the White House believes thay have gotten a mandate, "make no mistake about it. "
God help us all :(

1. How the fuck?

250,000+ votes yet to be counted

He had to steal OH

There's no mandate

[derbstyron]

2. all the vote totals going his way

they are "spinning" the results
EV victory (if they get it)
House seats picked up
Senate seats picked up
"Huge" (their words) popular vote margin.
I swear I HATE these Fuckers. :(

3. I just hate to say this but it does look like voters like Bush

Looks to me like people vote against them self or for some such world that was never here, but their it is in front of me.I still think he has started this country down the wrong path but what can one do?

[jezebel]

8. It's a scary thought how many "followers" he has isn't it? He can fuck up

this country however he wants and they still worship him

9. Looks like DIEBOLD likes *

4. The only mandate has come from the Diebold company....

people have risen in great numbers to go to the polls, but apparently democracy is now dead!

5. bush would assume a mandate anyways, real or not.

Just as he's done the past 4 years when 45% of this country saw him as an unelected, illegitimate "president".

bush DOES NOT CARE about the 50% of this country who don't worship him. He REFUSED to let anyone in that 50% even attend his rallies.

We DO NOT COUNT, we DO NOT EXIST to him.

His "mandate" refers ONLY to those who worship him. That's all that matters to him & to them.

6. Sure, why even have elections anymore, say goodbye to amerika

[Eurobabe]

something really stinks here...
