The Pendragon's Hall

The people have spoken and, as usual, Democrats don't like what they have said. George W. Bush swept into victory yesterday with the largest popular vote in history while his party picked up huge gains in House, Senate and governorships. The only state not to go with him on this, not surprisingly, was Vermont. The feeling here could not be more marked. The Brits are stunned...and depressed. They thought Kerry could win for being so popular abroad (even to the point of having Al-Jazeera cover his campaign on election night), but they again underestimated the American people as leftist lunatics are often doing. Among the Americans at the base, however, the feeling is one of jubilation that only increased as election night wore on. And the footage of military bases around the world reflected it back--the soldiers broke into loud cheers when Bush was announced the winner. While the Pretty Boy fluttered his eyelashes and primped for the next presidential campaign, ol' Gray Locks stood by in depression. His time is over. Edwards is right about one thing: the battle rages on. Next time, though, the choir boy with no job now that the people of North Carolina have actually been asked about him, will be facing the wrath of the Clinton machine. For the sake of your pretty little face, I'd stay at home.

Meanwhile, the people have given their mandate. George Bush can, for once, push his program aggressively and get it done. That means more tax breaks, better security, a booming economy, and finally, federal judges who actually interpret the laws rather than make them. Thank God. And God bless America!
