I'm still looking for the source of >this original information (i.e., where the exit polls come from). Very interesting.

21189 [lbo-talk] Slavoj rounds bend, celebrates Bush's victory -- rank: 1000

By Slavoj Zizek The first reaction of progressives to Bush's second victory was that of despair, even fear: The last four years were not just a bad dream. The nightmarish coalition of big business and fundamentalist populism will roll on, as Bush pursues his agenda with new gusto, nominating conservative judges to the Supreme Court, invading the next country after Iraq, and pushing liberalism in ...

21191 [lbo-talk] No Stolen Elections! -- rank: 1000
Charles Brown wrote: >Are there any studies of what percentage of people think investigation >of whether a US election could be stolen is nuttery ? For what it's worth, Gallup reports today that 74% of Americans think Bush won "fair & square," compared with about half in 2000. Just 13% think he stole the election, and 10% think he won on a "technicality." Doug

21194 [lbo-talk] man date? -- rank: 1000
Editor & Publisher - November 5, 2004 The 51% Mandate Some feel blue, others see red, as many in the press embrace the notion of a "resounding" victory for President Bush this week. No wonder he says he is eager to spend all this "capital." By Greg Mitchell (November 05, 2004) -- I have to admit that I am a little confused by all this talk of "man date" by Republican leaders in the days since the election. I thought they were opposed to same-sex fooling around. ...
