I notice something interesting in the answers to "what would you do if your candidate wins/looses.":
The Bush voters almost all answer something along the lines of "meh, no big deal," while the Kerry voters tend to be more passionate, especially in thinking that a Kerry loss will be a major disaster. Now, this should be taken with a huge grain of salt given the small sample size and obvious sample bias (duh)." Still, I think it's fairly reflective of other Kerry/Bush supporters I've heard from, and says something about the relative merits/demerits of those two candidates.
The question of who I think will win needs some clarification, after the precedent set in 2000. Do you mean who I think will get the popular vote, the electoral college majority, or who will be appointed by the Supreme Court? Hey, it's a valid question:)
Look at how diverse your friends list is. I was thinking of you this morning. If you drink tonight, airborne is a great hang-over remedy. Sorry hon, I know you wanted this to go the other way...
