So, who'll be the next Prez? Best answer on the web
And does it matter?
An Interested Observer from the Land of Good Queen Bess II.
I have grown accustomed to the very best analysis on such matters but what do I get .... ??
OK so I got Mr Curry's name wrong. Sorry!
I never realised that he was called Johy Curry - but Hell! - I'm not a native of the Colonies ... just an interested observer.
I think I can now see why King George cried 'Enough' let them get on with their Coca Cola and Kraft cheeses ... and their Boston Instant Coffee (caffeine free) Tupperware Party or whatever.
Long Live Geronimo!

Thanks to the scientific evidence presented by grthumongous. I am sure that the probability of the tallest Yale man has been factored into the odds calculated by the British bookies, another very shrewd observation from the talented grthumongous. S/He is certainly one to watch.
The odds a few minutes ago were GWB 4-11; JK 2-1; The Rest of the Field including Silicon Samurai's candidate 10-1. Place a bet while you can (but only if it's legal where you live) ... This is a much better bet than Hailstorm's Penny Shares. (Don't ask!)
I accept Tutuzdad's evidence that more believe that it does matter BUT I don't believe it myself. More importantly, was does Tutu herself think? Maybe she should have a say. Well, Tutu?
I should now like to invite someone to submit an Answer.
If the talented grthumongous were a Researcher then s/he would have been given an exclusive but instead ...
It's another race and YES even Hailstorm has the opportunity to make a killing at long last, so on your marks, Get Ready, Get Set ...
GO!

Personally I feel that Jack is the most worthy candidate and you can always trust what he says even if he does speak the same language as most of the people in Washington.
His only real opponent is www.geekforpresident.com

p.s. How's Bess doing these days?

Of course this question will expire before it can be answered.
"DOES IT MATTER?"
Acording to a recent poll it not only seems to matter who is elected President THIS TIME, but more people say they believe it matters more this time than ever before:
"More than in other presidential election years, voters see a lot at stake in the 2004 election: 82% think it does matter who is elected president, and only 17% believe things go on as usual no matter who is elected. In fact, the percentage who disagree that it makes no difference who is elected president is the highest it has been since CBS News began asking the question nearly thirty years ago."
"More than eight in ten Democrats and Republicans say it makes a difference who is elected."

And a versification as well.
I am sure that Mick the Mouse would get elected if he were to stand ...
And that he would do a damn fine job!
Wow ... I've just had an idea for a new play ...
Should you post an acknowledgement for the 25 Stars that I shall send you (system permitting) please report latest score in the Oink Zoo, by species.
Many thanks!

MICKEY: THE BEST CHOICE FOR THE BIG CHEESE.
NO TO ELECTIONEERING! YES TO MOUSKETEERING!
HEY, WHAT KIND OF MICKEY MOUSE ELECTION IS THIS??!!
TIRED OF ONE RAT AFTER ANOTHER IN THE WHITE HOUSE? PICK MICK.
And, in reference to Mickey & Minnie as a team:
FOUR MORE EARS!
Curry tastes very good on almost everything. We already discussed the Curry Wurst,haven't we? By the way, the recipe is to put curry powder and ketchup on it.
Wow, thankya thankya for the stars and the large tip! I promise not to contribute either the stars or the dollars to any political cause whatsoever, since I think an excess of stars and money has done great harm to the American political system.
Regarding this matter:
>> please report latest score in the Oink Zoo, by species.
The score is Oink-Love. But, of course, I am just being specious.

It is difficult - nay, impossible - for me to resist the temptation to post an **Official Answer** to this, now that the go-ahead for Offical Answerage has been issued. As a British gent once observed, I can resist everything except temptation.
As I often do when I am attempting to answer an essentially unanswerable question while trying to give my customer his money's worth, I turn to versification. I may not be the Bard of Avon, but I am known for my satirical creations, so perhaps I am a Mockingbard.
Kerry or Bush? John Eff or George Dublya?
Whom to choose? Don't let it troublya.
I have the cure for election fidgets:
Elect the guy with the fewest digits.
A four-fingered hand won't lead us astray.
Turn on, toon in! Mickey Mouse today!
Mickey has been a perennial write-in candidate, but now his hour has come round at last, and he is slouching toward the White House (or, if not slouching, then skipping while whistling a merry tune, which the biased media will gleefully report as slouching).
To those who may think that Mickey Mouse is reluctant to run, I direct their attention to this souvenir pin for sale at Walt Disney World. If this is not an obvious sales ploy for a Mickey/Goofy ticket, then I'm Petunia Pig:

The only thing about Mr. Mouse that I find troubling is that he is known to have powerful relatives in Florida. The last time we elected someone like that, all hell broke loose.
Very best regards from across the pond.
