Most of America is conservative

Do you really believe this? If this is true, then why did Gore garner more votes than Bush last election, and why will this also be a 50-50 election?

Don't let your time on FR skew reality.

Gore got more votes because we DO NOT ELECT OUR PRESIDENTS BY POPULAR VOTE.

If Dubya had needed more votes, he could easily have gotten half a million more in Texas alone, where vast numbers of GOP voters stayed home simply because their votes were not needed - he and all other GOP candidates won Texas by an overwhelming majority, and I doubt Texas was an isolated case.
