Hi Mama Bear; Re: "Hmm, the last time a candidate lost the popular vote (by less than 10,000 votes) but won the electoral college was in 1888. It has happened 4 times (assuming Bush is sworn in) in 104 Presidential elections. Hmm, are you sure 'continual' is the right word?"

Do you have a link for that 104 number? It seems a bit large to me, but with how long the presidential campaigns last nowadays, maybe they slipped a couple elections in on us...
