I'm sorry that you are too stupid to understand the point I was making....but I'm used to it.
Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Obama. California resident for all of them.
What point would that be? Please explain it for us.Quote:

I'm afraid I don't understand your point, since Texas in 2000 was a very safe and very red Republican state. Taking every Texas Nader vote and putting it into Gore's Texas column wouldn't have changed that.Quote:

I think he's trying to whottt his way around admitting he was making an idiotic point. That's Kevin for ya.Quote:

I heard Nader in Bill Maher's show.
How the fuck can anyone vote for that idiot?
Edit: My 10,000 post (FWIW) :downspin: :cooldevil :elephant
Reagan ( just a little too young but would've if I could've)
Reagan
Bush
No vote (didn't care much either way)
Clinton
Bush
Bush (more a vote against Kerry, thought I would be voting for Hillary to punish repubs but she didn't run)
McCain (more a vote against Obama, thought I would be voting for Hillary to punish repubs)
Why do people vote 3rd party? Might as well save time and stay home IMO.
2000: didn't vote
2004: didn't vote
W versus Gore was a tossup to me. If you put a gun to my head I probably would have gone with W. Gore's douche qualities were too high. And really, after 9/11, I think Bush was much better at rallying the common man than Gore would have been. Considering that was the most important time period of the last eight years by far, I'm glad it was dumbass W and not pompous douche Gore.
In 2004, Kerry was a joke of a candidate. I'd say he will go down as one of the top five worst presidential candidates in American history. W was obviously heading down the tubes but even a bad W is better than whatever Kerry would have brought to the table.
That said, if the Democrats would have nominated someone on the level of Clinton or Obama, I would have easily voted against W. Even looking back with 20-20 hindsight, I can't say for sure that Gore or Kerry would have us in a better position. W handled 9/11 in the weeks and months following it pretty damn well and whatever he's done has prevented a further attack. Would Gore or Kerry have done the same? Who knows.
But props to the Democrats for finally putting a good candidate on the ballot. Now the Republicans need to gather themselves and go back to their base principles and find a quality candidate in '12 or '16.
'72-McGovern
'76-Carter
'80-Reagan
'84-Reagan
'88-Bush
'92-Clinton
'96-Dole
'00-Bush
'04-Badnarik
'08-McCain
