I'm not even sure where to begin shoveling that pile of crap.

Currently the country is more evenly divided politically than it has been for years.
Prove it. 59% approval for Bush in the last polls, remember? That's even?

had Nader not entered the race.
Gee, you said that before and I said it was one of the points in dispute. And it is. And Buchanan took votes from Bush too. Do you hear us crying? Life is. You deal with it.

As to the argument about it coming down to one state...well that's what elections do with the electoral college. They boil down to a handfull of states. Florida was a key state with 27 electoral votes, one of the biggies.
Get my hip boots.

Check that out and tell me how many elections came down to one state.

This should help:

The last election before 2000 that was even close was 1960.

Gore asleep in the debates? Monotone? Are you nucking futts? You're the one who missed all Gore's snorting, hissing, and red-cheek war paint.

What revisionist planet are you on?
