Now flappy, truth is that (using goronic logic) we will NEVER know who won the popular vote in this election. You know that 2.5-3 million ballots nationwide were "not counted" in goronic terms because they were undervotes or overvotes or otherwise messed up by voters and they did not undergo a "hand recount". Therefore neither man can claim to have won the popular vote. And moreover, in our Republic, the founders wisely set up the EC, thereby making who won the popular vote an irrelevancy to begin with. Bush won the EC vote. He is the legitimately elected President, reaffirmed by the FL legislature and the USSC.

The whole thing is, Flap, the prairie dogs and pronghorns, spotted owls, cows, what-ever, DO vote. Their votes are registered in the blue areas of the map by people who know nothing of them or of the natural world they espouse.
