The election is over. The American _people_ made a decision ... quit your
whining and get over the fact you were in a minority.

Actually, in terms of total eligible voters, only about a third of the
people voted for Bush II. Guess Fox didn't carry that tidbit.

... and in terms of eligible voters, those who did not vote also made a
decision -- to let the rest of the voters make the choice for them, thus,
the OP's comment is still correct, the American people made a decision, the
