Dear Dinah,
I had a hard time reading your post because it was a bit too long for me, but I wanted to reiterate what it was I was trying to say.
I think the symbol of strength and morality (social values) that many people voted for was an empty symbol, and that the facts surrounding issues often did not matter.
November 2 is second only to September 11 as a sad day for America. I anticipated the outcome for many months, but nevertheless I became genuinely depressed on November 3. I think Kerry would have made a good president. Unfortunately, he was a weak candidate.
I would have liked to see Dick Gephart get in.
