He deserves it!
I heard it said on the radio here the other day that Bush deserves to be re-elected.
Then he has to deal with the horrible mess that Iraq has become and take the blame for the anarchy he has instituted there.
He will have to answer for the devaluation of the American dollar that is starting to take place because of the very large budget deficits.
He will be responsible when the next terrorist attack occurs.

It seems to be fair
The good news is (pending further information) that lots of people got out and voted and the process seems to have been reasonably fair.
If those people fairly choose this path then that's the way a democracy is supposed to work.
Fingers crossed now.

Obama
Unless Obama runs.
I watched a bit of an interview with him last night. Very impressive!
Is the country ready?

Depends on where you stand
From here Kerry looks moderately right of center. It depends on where you start from.
I think that if you looked over western democracies you'd have to say that Kerry is at least a bit right of average center. He's probably just a bit right of me.
I think that polictical 2 D thing had me a bit right of most who posted their position.

What OBL wants
It appears that you don't understand just how OBL might be working. To some degree he will do better at his long term goals the harder that any counter attack is persued.
This is especially true if the military approach is almost the entirety of the response.
Do you actually think that the last couple of years has made it harder for OBL to recruit foot soldiers prepared to die? If so why would you think that?

Hoping you are right about the sheep
No, but these are "mere sheep, easily dispersed if you kill the shepherd."
I think you underestimate the nature of what we are dealing with.
