What will the world think of us if we do not get the madman out
of our house? Will we immediately become a danger/threat in every country's strategy room? Could WE become the future insurgents?

1. They will think we are one step away from Fascism
And they Will probably be right.
But my biggest worry would be China and the east seeing the need for nukes in space to protect themselves from some primitive war.

3. we're ALL

And as for insurgents: yes, that is what we will become because we will be up against evil usurpers in a police state occupation.

4. Their anger and dismay which has generally been directed at one or
two nutballs running this country will generalize to the U.S. population as a whole.

Not good. Not good at all.

6. We will be screwed, and our former allies will actively work against us
There will be coalition of Europe and Asia to screw us economically etc etc.

Am people have been given the benefit of the doubt so far - not any more if Bush gets a "mandate."

7. I worry about this too. My husband's overseas family says they don't
think poorly of American citizens NOW, but if Bunnypants is re-elected, they will think of us as stupid and arrogant.
