Bush vs. Gore - best background?

I’d call that a steal, but to each his own.

It’s true that Bush didn’t have his fingerprints on that, but Team Bush did have a hand in delaying tactics like the Brooks Brothers Riot that shut down the recount in Miami-Dade County. The election may have been stolen for them by others, but they were trying to steal it themselves as well.

George W. Bush is so powerful he controlled the Supreme Court as Governor of Texas? That’s what your argument boils down to…and in fact he staged the Florida election such that he knew it’d go to the Supreme Court (which he controlled, and which also ruled on cases like Padilla etc that were not exactly pro-Bush.)

Thanks for playing, though.
