The election - last item

There are two articles about the elections which I think are useful to read.

The first is by Tish Durkin at The New York Observer. As a Kerry supporter she has some wise words for Democrats to win the next election. Its well written and worth reading.

The second article is an open letter to Maureen Dowd, a columnist at the NY Times from J. Matt Barber at Canada Free Press. He tries to help Dowd understand why the red States voted the way they did. Its humorous and well written.

Yesterday I was driving by Home Depot and saw the petition gathers ALREADY at work. I mean the election has only been over for TWO WEEKS and people are already working on the next election. A humble plea . . . . . can't the political battles wait until January? Lets take a short break so we can concentrate on more important things for a few months.
