Election 2004 - Winners and Losers
The winners from this years election are easy to find. George Bush is thebiggest winner. He stood resolute and unwavering in his decision making andhe was rewarded with a rather large affirmation vote from the American people.Other winners include:
- Carl Rove - Many criticized and even scoffed at his strategy for winning the election. I am sure he is continuing to smile.
- Republican Party - The Republican party picked up seats in both the Senate and the House solidifying the re-alignment of this country that could last for a couple of decades.
- Hillary Clinton - Oddly enough, her presidential aspirations got a big boost from the re-election of Bush. Why? If Kerry had won, then in eight years Edwards would have been a much more serious candidate with real experience.
- Bloggers - This groups was awesome in distributing news to counter the Main Stream Media's bias (see losers). They are an up and coming news source that will cause the Main Stream Media continual headaches.
- Iraqi People - They will continue to have in the White House a president who is friendly to the liberalization and democratization of their country
- Morality - Those in favor of a moral society based on the tenants of main stream religion won out over moral relativism. And the effects will be felt in the Supreme Court.
The big loser on election night was John Edwards. He is politically done. Heis no longer in the Senate. He has no experience to be president. He is theVP candidate for a losing candidate. He will not be around to seriouslycontend in '08. Other losers include:
- Democratic Party - This loss may ensure that they are the minority party in the Congress for some time.
- Main Stream Media - They threw non-partiality to the wind in this election. How? They tanked good economic news. They tried to spike Bush with a weapons theft (which didn't occur) the week before the election. They made up false documents about Bush's guard duty. Bottom line is they pitched a tent in the John Kerry camp and worked diligently to defeat Bush and lost. Now they have no credibility with a majority of Americans. I suspect their ratings will continue to dwindle and the rise of the blogs will continue.
- George Soros - He spent millions and millions try to smear and overthrow the Bush presidency. All he got was another 4 years of Bush.
- Michael Moore - The Goebbels of the Democratic party went so far as to make a fictional "documentary" that brutalized Bush. For this, he was celebrated in liberal circles for exposing the "truth" about the Bush administration. He was one of the leading instigators for whipping up the liberal's putrid venom and hate filled campaign. Ironically, it is the insane hatred for Bush that has caused all of the post election blues for the liberals. Moore's picture on the web site of George Bush made up of the American soldiers who lost their lives shows he continues to have real class, even in defeat.
