I don't think it matters if we have to wait 11 days to count all the votes. If Kerry concedes defeat, does that mean that even if the final tally of votes proclaims Kerry the winner Bush will still be president?
The second peculiar topic of discussion is which states voted for Bush, and which states voted for Kerry. If you look at the span of the country, All the huge, lower populated states in the center of the country voted Bush in. All the smaller, more populated Coastal states, kept the race close. Which states are the biggest targets of terrorism? California, Massachusetts, New York, even Washington D.C. who voted 90-10 in favor of Kerry have the largest amount of targets for terrorists to hit. We wanted to feel safe, but we were denied by all the central states. The central states who have no fear of terrorism, because they are not on the front line. So thank you Bible Belt, for putting the economy of this nation in fear. Thank you for giving us the privelege to be the first ones to fight the terrorists if they decide to infiltrate our soil. For it is not you that loses, unless we can't handle the pressure. By then, you won't have a redneck to stand on...and you call us cowards?

And I'm sorry for using a derogatory term. "Redneck" is not a term I usually use, but it seems to fit this equation. I DO NOT consider all rural states to be populated by "rednecks" I don't even really understand what redneck means...except it seems to have something to do with guys working outside on a farm that are more prone to sunburns on their necks. This may seem like damage control, but it is not. It's those people in the center of this country that provide so much food for the nation. So when I might say "redneck" it means those people that don't pay attention to the State of our Union unless it smacks of cheerleading. Oh god, now I've alienated the cheerleaders. Well, you can call me whatever you want...but it's when you discuss with me the labels we put on each other, that we begin to understand how vital our symbiosis is. I just feel that the middle, or RED states won't communicate the issues that us humans are really dealing with, and both the red and blue states seem to be whipped into a frenzy over one issue without realizing how they affect soveirgnty, brotherhood, advancement, liberty, and most importantly...peace.
