Us geniuses in above said category don't see a whit of difference between 
having Bush in the Whore House and having Kerry in there.  As we have said, 
it was a false choice all along.  Events that are shaping the future of us 
all are being determined, as to paraphrase Hamlet, "more things in heaven 
and earth than are contianed in your politics."

I'm glad to have the benefit of the results of the election that it has 
quelled a lot of the yammering, but on the things that are in play 
determining the quality of your life (or lack thereof, alas) Kerry and Bush 
are identical and did not even address or acknowledge.   I would feel no 
different about the prospects for our country and the world had Kerry been 
elected.

All us geniuses added together (independent voters) didn't add up to 
flautulence in a hurricane and we knew it wouldn't.  In my case, the state 
was going to go for Bush no matter, and it did by a wide margin.  Had we had 
all the Saints and Apostles backing us up from behind, we would not have 
cleared 1% of the vote, and we knew that.

The thing I disliked the most about Bush is that he is essentially so much 
like Kerry.  The thing (among others) that I disliked the most by far about 
Kerry was that he was so much like Bush.

It was a false choice.  There was no real choice in the offing this time.  A 
sure looser is not a real choice.  Patience, Iago!
