Good News, Bad news Dept.
I don't usually link to WorldNut, but this is a cool article in that it shows that the protest vote against bush isn't an isolated instance.
The good news for President Bush is he won the Oklahoma Republican primary last night. The bad news for President Bush is that a practically unknown Los Angeles T-shirt retailer, Bill Wyatt, won more than 10 percent of the vote. It could be a sign of disenchantment in the Republican base. Bill Wyatt took 10% of GOP vote in Oklahoma.Bush received 59,562 votes, not quite 90 percent of those cast. Wyatt pulled a surprising 6,622, slightly more than one of every 10 cast.
Wyatt is running a low-key campaign emphasizing an anti-war position and is protesting Bush's policies toward illegal immigrants. The strong showing is sure to encourage third-party candidates in the fall.
Replies: somebody speaks up.
