Go educate yourself on our electoral system, idiot. And no one is buying the "I'm a Republican too! Now you must listen to me tell you why 'we' are wrong!" bullcrap. That is a tired old act.
I've educated myself. It's a PROFOUNDLY stupid system and when I go to other countries on business, I frequently find myself explaining the stupidity of it to non-Americans.
Al Gore got more votes. Didn't vote for him, but the fact is, he got more votes. Probably got more votes in Florida, too.
Four times in our history has some clown said, "I won the electoral college, even though I lost the popular vote!"
In all those cases, they were pretty awful presidents who did real damage.
We really need to scrap this system.
But my main point was, the GOP has become this party for the people who lay you off. That's why they lose elections, even if the Democrats they run against are kind of numbnuts. Come on, Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Obama. No way these clowns EVER should have gotten more votes if too many people weren't rightfully suspicious of a GOP that seems to put the interest of EvilCorp over Mom and Dad.
Yet four out of five times, they did get more votes, and the only reason Kerry got less was because it was a war and you don't change presidents in the middle of a war.
