It works like this:
According to one of the Tennets of the Liberal Faith, when people vote for a Democrat, they are exercising their Rights and Resonsibility, to make an educated, well-informed, and, ultimately, "GOOD" choice.
When people vote for a Republican, then, obviously, by the fact that they voted for a Republican, they are either Evil, Greedy, self-serving, or stupid, usually a combination of at least two of those.
EXAMPLES:
2000: HALF of the nation is evil and crazed, Bush CHEATED!
2002: The American people were stupid.
2004: The American people, were still stupid. Bush CHEATED!
2006: The American peole, awakening from a deep slumber of ignorance, were suddenly, well-informed, making intelligent, educated decisions, based on wholesome goodness!
2008: The American people are incredibly wise, well educated, sophisticated, and, of good moral bearing (Except for the dying numbers of RACIST-FASCIST, Con-Pugs, who are mostly of EEVil intent!)
2010: UH-OH! The American people turned evil and stupid again, in a matter of two years!
