My comment about Bush having little chance of capturing NY was not intended as a pro-Democratic or anti-Republican comment....just a matter of political reality. If Bush captured NY, it would be a massive upset.....and would mean that Bush would be winning the election in a landslide.

Howard,

You are right...it seems that some people on this board cannot distinguish between fact, humor, and opinion. To state that Bush will not win NY or CA or IL, etc. is stating a FACT, just as it would be to state Kerry will not win AL, OK, TX, et al. These are political REALITIES, not opinions. If you were to say either one would not win FL,OH, or MI, THAT would be OPINION.

Well, guys, actually, after I posted my comment, I thought....... it's not my business if they want to snipe, really, either way. Yes, I am a Bill Maher fan, and are you familiar with the comment I'm talking about, regarding Bush & Kerry? It's pretty hilarious......... Carry on!
