the reason why George W. Bush won the election is because the United States of America works on the electoral votes system, not the popular vote.
He won because Al Gore was losing Democratic support everywhere for pushing this issue into the ground.
He won because a man's past is not as important as his honesty now.
I realize that there aren't any of you that care about the real reasons why George won. In fact most of you probably came here to see me say something slanderous about him, but the truth is he won, because America's system worked. It was working all along. Al Gore conceded before the house and senate eventually chose George as President and Liebreman as Vice-President, (yes this really could have, and more than likely would have happened). Al Gore, if he wants a serious chance at running again, needed to concede. Even his party was turning against him. He made a smart choice by conceding, now he actually still has a chance at the presidency in 4 years.
I have a problem with people who lie, that's why I voted for George Bush. That is also why he won. (end)

FYI, the person who wrote it wrote it in December 2000. So your thoughts. We know that this is bullshit now. I knew it was bullshit then. Many didn't know. But do you think that as many people believe this line of reasoning now in 2004 as did in 2000?
