Caps:

"You could also say:
It's pretty clear that Ralph Nader cost Al Gore the election. or
It's pretty clear that Tennessee and Arkansas cost Al Gore the election. or
It's pretty clear that the former president cost Al Gore the election."

You forgot it's pretty clear that Al Gore lost the election by making stupid statements, failing to have a message and general incompetence. With the economy doing as well as it was he should have won easily. Instead he managed to grasp defeat from the jaws of victory. I don't know how anyone watching his performance could have a high regard for his intellegence.

The Palm Beach situation was one of many many many variables, and if you change ANY of them you can tip the election the other way.

Well sure. But I was referring to things that cost Al Gore the election after a slight plurality of Florida voters walked into their polling booths with the intention to vote for him.
