I tried to link to this site, but it didn't work. Anyway, go to www.miniclips.com.   At the bottom of the page click on "presidential knockout". Have fun.

HA! Talk about cathartic- I kept mumbling: How dare you! You scumbag! Take that! And that!

When I came to the end, it said that Bush won. ?

Wow, that was great! How satisfying to see the blood fly!

Well, Bush has been drunk on everything else, might as well be punch drunk.

Ebbie, I had the same problem. I got in far more punches than Bush did, and he still won. Three times. It's just like the election in Florida.

Wow that's frighteningly satisfying.

RangerSteve, thanks for the laugh. That was my own experience, exactly- three rounds. Made me wonder whether clicking on my "opponent" actually made it my protagonist. I'll try it again later- as was noted above, it's VERY satisfying.

(Did you see somewhere that rather than Florida this election, the problem area may be the state of Ohio? Perhaps we can nudge Spaw out there to do his thing.)

I find I always lose, no matter which person I choose to be. In fact, I got Bush to the point where he had no "punch score" left, and then none of my blows landed for minutes on end. It's obviously programmed for only one outcome.

upsy daisy! I went back and fought the shrub again and won 2 rounds out of 3. Let me tell you that it is very nice to see his heels go flying. I find that the right upper cut will do the trick, interspersed with the judicious application of defensive fists. (And this from one with pacifist leanings!)

I won two out of three tonight. You have to use the space bar to replenish your energy.

There are other games at the site, Presidential Joust doesn't seem to work, and Bush Shoot-out was interesting, but not as satisfying as Knock-out. For just plain fun, try the Kerry Work-out or United we Dance (Bush and Brittany S. disco dancing).

yeah, my connection must have been slow or something. I kicked both their asses today...

So the same tactics can get different results on different visits/days.
Maybe all the results are fixed in advance, it is politics!

You can win for either. You have just got to take rests between punching by using the spacebar.

I just kicked Shrub's ass in all three rounds, and knocked the little SOB down four times in the last round! Oh, that felt sooo good!
