*** please, don't tar me with the 'Gore fan' brush, cause i'm not a fan of Big Fey Al - but i just don't see this Iraq situation happening if the person who got the most votes had actually been allowed to assume the office. ***

Brad,

 Yes, yes, yes, Gore got more votes than Bush (sigh). We know!

But according to our Constitution it's the Electoral College votes that determine who wins the Presidency. It's been this way for hundreds of years. Just because one guy gets the most of the popular vote does not mean we should disregard the constitution and "allow" him to become president. We can't go changing the rules in the middle of the game just because we don't like who won.
