But with its decision, the justices have shown the world that they are hacks for the Republican Party. George W. Bush wins. The notion of reaching out to Democrats is ridiculous. This election was a battle of a political philosophies. If the winner doesn't exercise his philosophy, that philosophy can never be measured for its effectiveness.
Leadership requires courage and conviction.
Had it not been for the Electoral College, Bill Clinton would never have become president. His share of the popular vote would not have slid him into office. It's interesting how a party's ideals change when it begins to lose its power. I'm glad that Bush won the election. Al Gore would have made further cuts to our military and taken away our guns.
