BUSH WINS THE ALL-IMPORTANT JAPANESE ABDUCTEE'S BROTHER ENDORSEMENT

U.S. President George Bush is preferable as a winner in the upcoming election compared with Democratic nominee-apparent Sen John Kerry due to his tough stance against North Korea, a brother of a Japanese woman kidnapped by North Korea in 1978 said at the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan Tuesday.

"The families of abduction victims fear the United States under control of Mr Kerry might accept bilateral negotiations with North Korea and the abduction issue would be possibly put on ice," said Teruaki Masumoto whose older sister, Rumiko, was abducted to North Korea in 1978 at age 24. Masumoto said the opinion has not been officially expressed by the group of victims' families but almost all the members share the view.
Well, there you have it: I guess the election is over, then.
