For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I always thought that Bush would win (52:46 ish) until yesterday (Tuesday) morning. Then I looked at the latest state-by-state opinion polls and changed my mind to Kerry. I changed my mind to Bush again at c. 3am today (Wednesday) when they said that Bush was ahead in the early stages of the count in Florida and Ohio.
btw, I predict that Hillary Clinton will never be a candidate for president.
One of the undoubted joys of answerbank that has been missing is this type of debate.........
As I type this it's mid-afternoon and it looks increasingly like a Bush win......but as yet no-one has mentioned the very real possiblility of numerous recounts and endless wrangling through the court system in the US.
As for our (UK) views....do they really matter? Should they? Do we take any consideration of what would be good for people in other countries when we take to the polling station? Although I'm sure Iraq will be raised when the election rolls around here I'm willing to bet it will be issues like taxation and europe hich have a much greater impact on the electorate.
Regardless of it all the sad fact is that the winner and supposed leader of the largest democracy in the world will be in the pocket of big business and I doubt Global warming or third world issues will be at the top of the new presidents list of to do's no matter who wins.
