By the way I think tje 300,000 conservadems who voted for Bush and Reagan, and I expect to vote for trump are far more responsible. But I hold the USSC, and Harris, as well as Jeb far more responsible as well.

And these days partisans who cannot comprehend ballot integrity

a Dubya buddy as Sec of State making up the rules as she went along.
And a Supreme Court decision.

But if you want to blame the guy that didn't even win one state, go ahead.

If you are trying to compare him to Bernie, you cannot. Bernie has won 20 states so far - almost half.

however I do still regret it as history would have been completely different under a President Gore. The horrific 8 years of the Bush/Cheney regime convinced me to never ever vote against Democrats.

who irretrievably fucked away any conceivable benefit he might have been to Gore's campaign, simply by failing to keep it in his pants.

He erased tape. She attempted to erase emails.

It took Nixon to go to China and it will take a Clinton to finally ruin Social Security.

He also didn't run Gore's shoddy campaign or design Florida's junky ballots.

This was the old talking point. Now, the Bushco has been invited into the tent as honored guests. We're all supposed to talk about how great they were for the nation and how we need to be more like them.

Please try to keep up with your team. It's embarrassing when the cheerleaders are out of step with each other.

Your claim is the problem was caused by the number that is 10 times smaller.

Remind me again about which campaign has a superior grasp of math?
