To me this election came down to two kinds of ppl (mainly).

Those that had such a dislike for GW that it became anyone but him. These ppl obviously found something in the way he spoke and of course his decisions that they didn't trust him and plain hated the guy.

The other half of ppl could not have been more opposite. They actually liked the guy to the first groups dismay. They also trusted him and believe in the fight he has undertaken to protect us all.

Everything I've read, seen, friends and other ppl I've talked to have lead me to this conclusion. Obviously I am in the second group but I have friends that are in the first. I really think thats what it mainly came down to. Perception and beliefs.
