Damn..you are still talking about Daley people, Al Capone people, God's Disciple's People...and in the same breath you suggest anyone should care what they say?

That state has serious problems and has for years and years...Great Lakes supported it during prohibition...

That is over, give it up! I remember a famous 60s activist , drunk and down on his luck. He carved people that were obnoxious as long as they were "against the system"...however, he was said and everyone mocked him as he ate pill after pill on the bar in New Hope PA.

You can't fight for the sake of fighting. Especially when there are crops to bring in. Oh..he was Abby Hoffman. Once famous and then later only known as a JERK...

Good points. Conversely, I've read that Bush lost Pennsylvania because he didn't carry the Philadelphia suburbs like Reagan did. I think there will be plenty of second guessing of this election in the future. I think both Dems and Repubs can agree that Gore ran a terrible campaign.

On another note, I think we've seen the last of Gore. After trying to sue his way into the White House, and losing, he really has nothing to concede. The Dems stuck with Gore way too long. Might have hurt their chances in 2002.

By the way, one of the mistakes the Dems made was not spending more campaign time and money in Ohio. Several analysts said after the election that Ohio was indeed winnable for Gore had he put a little more money and time into the state
