I think danny is just a troll who loves to stir the pot and see what sort of outrage he can garner. I'm surprised by how many of these types populate C-D but the ignore feature is a useful function.
As to did Gore win? No. Worse, he and his thugs tried to steal an election and were slapped down for it. And thank God for the SC who finally said, ENOUGH! Look at Gore now - total loon just like his daddy.

A troll, by definition, is you, not me. I stay on topic and argue factually, while you have no argument and only launch personal attacks, as your reply indicates.
I strongly recommend you use the ignore function, as I do.
The 2000 vote was decided by the Supreme Court, not the electoral college.
Wrong. All the U.S. Supreme Court did was put a stop to the illegal, endless hand recounts. The U.S. Supreme Court asked the Florida Supreme Court why the hand recounts were continuing. When the Florida Supreme Court could not give a valid reason, the hand recounts were stopped (finally).
Five justices agreed that December 12 (the date of the decision) was the deadline Florida had established for recounts (Kennedy, O'Connor, Rehnquist,[29]Scalia and Thomas in support; Breyer,[30]Ginsburg, Souter[31] and Stevens opposed). Justices Breyer and Souter wanted to remand the case to the Florida Supreme Court to permit that court to establish uniform standards of what constituted a legal vote and then manually recount all ballots using those standards.
If anyone ever still believed the USSC was even one iota interested in the integrity of the law and not partisanship it was this decision right here that would tell them otherwise. The five judges who would normally tend to be against the federal government intervening in the business of the state chose to have the federal government intervene. The four judges who normally had a tendency to favor federal power chose to remand the case back to the state courts. The liberals on the court were right; the case should have been remanded. This is the most odious partisan decision in the history of the USSC.
Having said all that Bush would have almost certainly won anyways if the oligarchs in black robes had remanded the case back to the Florida courts.
Leftists always affirm that Bush didn not really win the election. Are they right?
There is so much voter fraud and mishandled ballots I think someone needs to win by a large margin to know who really won.

I remember a very long time back in 2004. When they were pushing the young people to vote, they said "Bush won by just 500 votes' I was stunned, but I am sure that information was not credible. I remember a commercial about that.
odanny fails to remember that the Dems were trying to disqualify the military votes and as someone said earlier, hand count in 3 Democrat controlled counties.
Bush won it fair and square and the only ones trying to steal anything were the left. Then again, they have a history of such shenanigans.
