Originally posted by RagnorakWhich fiasco are you talking about? The one where Gore prevented the absentee ballots of thousands of soldiers stationed overseas who voted 80% in Bush's favor or the one where the dummies complained that they punched the wrong place on the ballot. If Gore had won his home state Tennessee, Florida wouldn't have mattered. Tennesseans know what a dumbass Gore is. Thats why they didn't vote for him.
Even if u do vote, they'll just change it to Bush anyway. I can't believe the Florida fiasco hasn't led to any tightening of rules/regulations. It seems that things have gotten worse with electronic voting machines installed by one of the Bush's crony companies. No paper trail = Bush victory, simple as that.

Originally posted by DreamlaXBush did not cheat, he had more votes in the electoral college. Though he did lose in the popular vote. In case your wondering what the electoral college is....each state gets an certain number of electors which is equal to the number of its senators and representatives. If there happens to be a tie the election is moved to the House of Representatives where each state gets one vote.
Because you can win by cheating. If you are caught cheating in almost any game you become an instant loser; too bad these elections aren't games.
