Not that we haven't been touchin' on, okay somethimes touching heavily on, the '04 Presidential Election but I'd just like to go on record of listing my hopes for this election:

1. I hope it is a complete and total clusterf*ck (excuse my rare use of the "f word"). Yes, this is my greatest hope tonight. I hope that the courts are clogged up and I hope that this election ends up in the House or Representatives. And I hope that the deal that comes out of the House is that the un-democratic "winner take all" Electorial College gets a stake thru the heart. It is bad for democracy and it is equally bad for third parties... Even if Bush is awarded another 4 years of screw-ups, if we could get this from this election, then in the future, unless the people get even dumber (you know, like animal cracker stupid, then we won't have any more George Bush's ruling, not governing, America..

2. In the absence of my first hope then I hope that John Kerry wins the presidency with both the popular vote and the Electorui. Yes, I know in the past that I've said that maybe the US needs a ial College votre. Yes, I know I have said that Amnerica needs another 4 years of Bush just to be sure it learns it lesson but I'm stickin with a Kerry victory as my 2nd choice.

3. My third choice would be purdy much a repeat of last time around with not enought of a clusterf*ck to get the election to the House of Representatives but another selection of Bush by the Supremes. I think this would give America the 4 years it needs to decide once and ofr all that having a crook for president ain't the best idea and it will also plant the seeds to overhaul the system at some later date.

So those are my top three choices for the outcome of THE ELECTION.

What are yours?
