Nightmare on Conservative Street

Following the revote in the Ukraine and the completion of the vote counting in Washington state, one has to wonder if a number of conservatives aren't getting a good night sleep these days.

It's not that they aren't sleeping well because they fear that Sen. John Kerry will be able to overturn the results in Ohio, rather they may not be sleeping well because of the fear that the day is coming where the mantra "count every vote and every vote counts" becomes an accepted standard in the United States.

Afterall, if the state of Washington and the country of Ukraine can work to make sure that the will of the voter is respected then that kind of view could spread to every state, county city and township in America. No longer will it be acceptable to stop counting before all votes are counted.

One can only imagine the nightmares conservatives have. One would be that it's November 2000 and the presidential election won't be settled until all the votes are counted. Deep down in most conservatives' hearts they know exactly what that means and one can only imagine the cold sweat that causes.
