What is absurd or irrational about the truth? Even with three opponents Lincoln took 50.1% or more of the votes cast in states with 173 electoral votes. Enough to win.

Well, let me remind you what the point the Judge was making that you have unsuccessfully tried to contend with you weak electoral college argument: Lincoln was NOT a popular president throughout the US in 1860.

What other president have we been talking about?

So far, Lincoln, Reagan and Obama. I think that I mentioned Clinton, too.

But according to you the '84 election was a real squeaker.

I said that the the 1980 election was close and that the 1984 election represented an actual popular vote mandate.

Once again you are caught telling a lie.

But, not much more can be expected from a congenital liar................

Well duh! Any president running on a platform of ending the expansion of slavery would not be popular in at least 11 Southern states.

Once again you are caught telling a lie.

Not by you. Not to date.
