As much as it pains me to say it, it looks like Karl Rove was right with the rumored 4,000,000 right wing voters who sat on their hands last time, because as of this writing Bush has turned around a a 500,000 popular vote loss in 2000 to a 3,000,000 popular vote win in 2004.
How it happened despite all the dissatisfaction with the war, the economy, etc, I really don't know. I'm sure the soul searching will being in earnest once the hangovers wear off. Perosnally, I'm too depressed to drink.
All I know is, it's going to be a long 4 years.
