Not to gloat! BUT:

My entry for the 2003 Bulwer-Lytton Fiction contest.

Political category:

”It might have been a Grey night, but that was all as Tom drove his ramshackle demo-car along Constitution Avenue with the ominous “Right Turn Only” signs taunting him with every passing block and noticing that his gas-gauge was reading empty while knowing the air was leaving his re-tread tires and the 50-50 oil he was counting on was dripping like a sieve out of the corrupted base of this car that he knew would not last another two years, when he remembered his mission was to find some sour-grapes to bring to the funeral he was to attend.”

“I can’t think of anything we would have done differently. I wouldn’t change anything,” he said.

There is the problem. He has no clue!!!

“It is too early to tell what will happen on Iraq, but you will probably see a far more hawkish position and confrontational tone to their approach,” Daschle said.

Wrong. Still playing the same brand of stupid politics that lost him the election. Bush has been moving quietly and confidently ahead on Iraq, and this won't change his timetable in the least. Nor is Bush about to start ranting and raving and warmongering in a "confrontational tone" of voice. "Confrontational tone" is what Daschle, Gore, and McAuliffe like to resort to. That's why they lost.

They are going to lose even more unless they get a clue. I personally hope that they diminish their party base until it is competing with the Green party for a far off second/ third.

I watched a little bit of the Today show today. But I have to admit, the bits that I watched made me feel very alienated, like I wasn't the target audience for the day. They had a lot of Democrats on their. And a lot of them were giving the same old thing about "The economy is so important." It is very important, which is why we needed Republican control. Since when did people start looking to the Democrats to fix the economy? Do all the media people believe that raising taxes and spending more money on superfluous programs will give our economy a boost? Also, I heard Katie Curic comment that the Republicans were "Crowing" today. It is just me, or does anyone else find that characterization VERY insulting?
