Some people really are sorry and some aren’t. What can you do?
这是2004年总统选举揭晓后双方选民对Bush连任的不同反映。sorryeverbody.com的几千张图片代表了49% blue American的心声: “America proudly re-appointed her reckless, incompetent and corrupt government. How much of America? Fifty-two percent. The rest of us are aghast and dismayed. The world needs to understand that there are people in America who don’t like what our government is doing.” 在浏览该网站的时候，摘抄了一些录入如下：
- 49% of Americans aren’t happy either. Sorry guys.
- My vote never had a chance here in Kentucky. So very sorry.
- I’m from Ohio. I voted for Kerry. So did my village. SOrry it wasn’t enough.
- Sorry world. At least you don’t have to live with him.
- Sorry World! Some of us in Georgia really did try!
- Not all Texans like Bush… Sorry from 38% of Texas.
- Sorry to the rest of planet earth. From the other 42% of South Carolina. We really DID try.
- Sorry, mankind.
- We are not only sorry – but are embarrassed as well! We do love the world!
- First I wanted to cry, then I wanted to move, now I want to fight. Sorry world. Don’t give upon us. We need your support now more than ever!
Non-American的回音：
- I’m sorry for beinig Canadian and unable to change anything
- Apologies accepted. We are sorry too. Please, don’t let it happen again in 4 years! regards from Belgium

- Dear 49%! Don’t be desperate, you did your best. We’ll look at you agai in 4 yers, to see what’s left over. To those who cannot stand that: come over here, you are heartily welcome! To all the others: Good Luck! Love & strong hugs, old Europe

当然，随之而来的便是51% Not sorry的美国人的声音。
werenotsorry.com和
notsorryeverybody.com记载了他们的图片和心声。
其实说是4年，民主党也只有两年时间准备一位强力候选人了。Al Gore虽然宣布还要参选，不过我看成为候选人可能性很小；Kerry和Edwards似乎还有意继续，但是Kerry作为东北部候选人对中部和南部的号召力实在不够，同理Hillary也够戗，而Edwards政治经验还显太嫩。而且也有人指出（我之前也有这种看法），Senator没有Governor有号召力和说服力，民主党应该在各个州长里面寻找适合人选——不知道我们Virignia的Mark Warner有没有可能一试。看来看去，只能长叹一声：为什么上帝不再赐给民主党一个Bill Clinton！
