Who Lost?
The Bush victory is all but official at this writing, but it looks like it's in the bag for the republicans. There will be much navel gazing in the media. As was the case during the Reagan funeral, the media wondered (Rather actually voiced it) how they could have missed it. What they missed prior to the Reagan funeral was just how popular President Reagan was. All the numbers aren't in, but it looks like even Gore outperformed John Kerry. How could they have missed it? They needed to miss it in order to get their man elected. Much will be analyzed about this election. Just know your sources and what their agenda is.
Here are a few of the losers. A partial list, in no particular order.
- Zogby loses big. They predicted 311 evs for Kerry and 213 evs for Bush. Apparently they banked on the bogus early exit polls.
- Whoever was responsible for the exit polling lost big time. There needs to be an investigation. Maybe the folks at CBS could look into it for us after they complete the Dan Rather forged document scandal. This year the skewed(screwed?) exit polling didn't seem to discourage others from voting like it did in 2000. Maybe voters were determined to not allow another election like the last one.
- The MSM lost on several levels; ratings, and more importantly, credibility. Joe Viewer no longer buys their biased pap. When Walter Cronkite smears the President as he did last week (that Karl Rove put OBL up to the infamous taped message), people are more apt to see him as a doddering old fool as opposed to the 'most trusted man in America' (barf!).
- Newspapers, though part of the MSM, it should be noted that the drastic decrease in circulations may be directly proportional to the leftist editorial positions they embrace (generally speaking).
- The Islamo-fascists. There won't be dancing in the streets in Islam World when Sen. Kerry concedes, er, loses in court.
- The democrat party. Their inability to concede gracefully only diminishes their tarnished image. They've lost and they know it. They will litigate now, not because they think they can win, but to once again try to delegitimize Bush's presidency in the eyes of the far left. This serves to fire up the radical base for the next election cycle...which begins tomorrow!
