OT Australian elections: Howard government returned
....with a significantly increased majority and probable control
of the upper house (senate). Is this a pointer to the outcome in the US????

Thanks Tad,
It seems the people from "down under" aren't as against us Yankees as Oz and Nav would like us to believe. Nice to hear! Ole Thom |

Oz,
Stop, take a deep breath, swallow and except the fact the the MAJORITY has made their decision, 50% of us are going to have to do the same thing next month. It will be close and don't know yet which 1/2 it will be. That is our way! It works! It has for hundreds of years. The majority rules. There are a lot of minds out there as smart or smarter than you and I. (Can you believe that?) and they have been right more often than us. Time to learn what we weren't seeing for the good of all. Hang on for a few weeks. By then I may be in the same position you are and we can console one another. Can't change anything so we have to accept. Ole Thom |

Eisboch,
That would be true if the US was a 100% Democracy but it isn't. It is a Democractic Republic. That is our way. Ole Thom |
