Polls are open for a few more hours, “I voted” stickers are on a number of CMSU student shirts, and predictions of who will win or if Americans will even know abound. Yes, it must be Election Day, 2004. If we miraculously have a decision for the people any time soon, we’ll go in to this Christmas with some expectation of what the New Year will bring. For Bush supporters, a Republican victory might bring comfort that America still wishes to remain as culturally conservative as is possibl...
Fire up those laptops and surf to your local search engine, try “Bush earpiece” in one search session and “Kerry Pen” in the other.
