24. Hey!

You stole my response! LOL

I think Dean is going to surprise us all and nick Kerry in the buttocks. I think Kerry will take second, and Clark will edge out Edwards by a nose. That leaves Lieberman and Kucinich. I would love to see Kucinich beat Lieberman, but after his warm reception in NH, I don't think that's possible. Sharpton, God love him, will take dead last.

[NewHampster]

15. One last time, as voting hour approaches in NH

And the Ghost of the "Old Man" steps out of the swirling snows to seek honor, truth and justice.

This is the umpteenth and final posting of the "Old Man's Omen.

The Old Man of the Mountain. His face has fallen, but his Ghost still roams the hills and valleys of the Granite State as Primary 2004 -- a veritable struggle for the soul of the nation -- looms.
Storm clouds have gathered to shroud the occasion.

High up on the flank of massive Cannon mountain in Franconia Notch, NH, the Old Man of the Mountain lost his face - literally - on May 3, 2003, the day after President George W. Bush paraded across the deck of the U.S. aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln, and declared "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq.

I was struck by the sequence of events. Bush parades on Abe Lincoln deck, then the Old Man of the Mountain loses face immediately thereafter. What's going on here? Is the mountain trying to tell us something?

Old Man Loses Face - May 3, 2003:
http://gonewengland.about.com/cs/nhhistory/l/bloldmanofmtn.htm

For Granite Staters -- and for all who had ever seen him -- the collapse of the Old Man's face was a first-class tragedy because the Old Man was a symbol of honesty, dignity, and honor. He seemed eternal.

I always thought of the Old Man's profile as embodying the same qualities as Old "Honest Abe" Lincoln, whose profile is so familiar to us from the penny. So I was deeply saddened to see him "lose face," and could not help but note that it came right after Bush pulled what was basically a PR stunt on the deck of our nation's Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier.

What right did he have to celebrate and "Declare Victory"? Hundreds of our soldiers have died and been grievously wounded since that day, not to mention the ongoing misery for their families at home and the families in Iraq. Mr., Bush's own personal military record, we are now learning, is highly questionable.

At the time it happened, I was inclined to take the monumental loss of the Old Man's face in the Granite State as some sort of cosmic sign that the heavens frowned upon Mr. Bush's hollow boasting.

After all, as we now know the Iraq war is based on made-up stories. Iraq had no WMDs, and no connection to the tragedy that befell America on 9/11. This is apparently a war of aggression and conquest. That's why our young men and women have their lives on the line in Iraq. it has little to do with our national defense or our true honor. It has a lot to do with power and oil.

Now that I have read Sevethson's essay about the candidacy of John Buchanan in the NH Republican primary, I see things in a different light. I see the loss of face of the Old Man of the Mountain as a possible omen that Bush may well lose face before the voters of NH.

Will Bush be surprised during the NH primary? We shall see.
Here's Seventhson's discussion thread on the NH Republican candidacy of John Buchanan against G. W. Bush.

Buchanan's campaign -- and his research -- are sincere, and worthy of every voter's consideration.

[saltpoint]

20. Kucinich will get twice what the polls say he'll get --

-- but for first place, Kerry narrowly over Dean. Clark passed by Edwards, also narrowly, and Lieberman passed by Jacques Chirac, Charles Manson, and two hookers from Ft. Worth.

[flaminbats]

32. One thing that I have observed....

many of the same people will attend most of the different rallies. So it is important not to make predictions based on the size of the rallies, but on the polls and the enthusiasm of the crowds for a candidate's pitch.

Marvin Griffin once complained that many people ate his BBQ...who never voted for him! :nopity:
