Yes. But depending on who gets elected:
1. Women will develop new relationships with coat hangers
2. Gays will not be recognized by the government as being married even if the particular religious institution they are part of supports it
3. Iran?
4. North Korea?
5. Your phone will be allowed to be tapped into and all your email read

 FINAL Predictions
Okay, it's that time. Start casting you're final electoral college predictions. We'll see who's closest.
Me: Kerry - 287
Bush - 251
It'll all come down to Florida, Ohio, and, in the event of Kerry and Bush splitting the two, New Hampshire, Maine, and New Mexico.
Kerry will win the popular vote, but with less than 50%. He will win Florida, but lose New Hampshire and Ohio.

Those numbers look familiar. :wink:
I'm not sure about the actual number each will receive, but I do think Bush will win.

If we're going to predict the electoral college can we have a cut off date of one week before the election and the thread starter (Amer) compile the guesses into one post.
Assuming there is real interest in doing that by enough people.

As you can see, even they have Bush winning.
Kerry will NOT win Florida. Not even the liberals can sue for those electoral votes.

There are highly contentious issues, but they don't mean that Bush is going to outlaw abortion itself.
And need I remind you that John Kerry support partial birth abortion ban?

You know that for amendment to pass it has to be approved by two thirds of the Congress and three quarters of the states, right? Bush supports it, but it doesn't mean he has any say in it passing.

I played around with my little presidential calculator, and came to one of two scenarios. I don't think FL is going democrat. They know who their governor is and they need federal dough to dig out of four hurricanes. That is, those of them that have a permanent address left by the time Jeanne hit land.
I think Ohio is going Kerry. They've never been swing before, but are turning around, and he had a solid debate victory there.
Oregon and New Mexico go Kerry, Colorado, Iowa, and Minnesota go Bush.
IMO, it doesn't come down to Florida in this election...
It comes down to Wisconsin. There current governor, Jim Doyle, is a Democrat.
If they go democrat:
Kerry: 272
Bush: 266
If they go republican:
Kerry: 262
Bsuh: 276
Anyone from the area have a general sense of the sentiments of the state? I have no idea.

The fact that he's even proposing it is offensive and should be indicative of what he would love to have happen. Just cause my man Kennedy is voting no, doesn't shift the responsibility away from Bush for announcing such a preposterous resolution over national airwaves.

No it doesn't.
But that doesn't mean that Bush's cause will prevail if he is re-elected, like you have indicated.
