How original. So Gore lost his home state. Big deal the people in his home state didn't like him.
The republicans lose to a dead a guy (Ashcroft) and have to vote for a candidate that had inappropriate communications with a minor in the hopes of electing a different Republican (Mark Foley). I'd say that is an impressive record. At least Gore lost under his own record and was actually in a race against a living candidate.
Besides if you remember Gore actually won the popular vote.
Absolute faith has been shown, consistently, to breed intolerance. And intolerance, history teaches us, again and again, begets violence.

Where is written in the election process you must carry the state in which you live.
Thanks again, you are so right. Yep it is a "big deal". They are the people who should know him best. Obviously, they saw him as you didn't.
A Democrat living a red state - one that is in the South no less.....yep. Now the majority of the people from the state of Tenn. are suppose to be in step with the values of the candidate from their state or vice versa. Last time I checked the president serves the entire nation, not just one state.
It is a shame Gore didnt carry his state because Bush could be on his Texas ranch hunting with Cheney and this country would have been better off the past 6 years without Chimpy McFlightsuit in office.
