Just a simple Cherokee trial lawyer, Barkman has been forcing his opinions on others in print since, for reasons that passeth understanding, he was an unsuccessful candidate for state representative in 2002. His philosophy: "If people had wanted me to be nice, they should've voted for me."

Let the Spin Begin

This election was a victory for moderates.

No, it wasn't!

Was too!!

Was not, was not, was not!!!

Both of you shut up!! The Republicans lost because they didn't pander enough to blasphemous religious zealots!

No, you shut up! Republicans lost because terrorists totally brainwashed the voters!

Sigh. I need a nap.

UPDATE: Republicans lost because they abandoned the Will of God (which, coincidentally, is also the Will of Dobson).

No way, dude!

Run for your lives! The Democrats are gonna impeach Bush!! Really!! I mean it!!!

It was the incompetency and corruption, stupid!

Oh, yeah; I definately need that nap now...

If any issue had a huge impact on this election (besides Iraq), I think it was actually immigration. I heard on NPR that the Hispanic vote for Democrats rose 18%. That's probably the single biggest shift in any demographic category.

That's an excellent point. Whatever else you can say about Bush, he was smart enough to realize early on (back when he was Governor) that immigrant-bashing was a net political loser for the GOP. They should've listened to him, instead of cozying up to the Minutemen and the rest of the xenophobic fringe.
