A massacre. A bloodbath.  McCain-(Fred) Thompson, maybe?  I'm still pining for a Bush-McCain ticket this year.  I believe in miracles!
McCain wouldn't run under Bush.

I couldn't add my prediction map (I don't know why) but here is my prediction. Gore would have won only in MA, RI, CT, NY, NJ, MD, DC, IL and HI.

Why do you put Delaware before Maryland? I have understood that it is more conservative than Maryland with its Republican representative of House.

Miami. You are left liberal. How you can favour McCain?

I like McCain, he is a moderate and a straight-talker.

You go the Electoral College calculator Deluxe, copy that map and insert it with after the adress.

I don't agree with everything he does, but I don't agree with everything Bush does, either.  I'd guess that McCain could win the presidency if it was a vote by Atlas Forum citizens.

I am a gore fan, I guess.  But I like McCain better Smiley

I went to McCain's Senate office last September when I was in DC. He has a huge wall covered in photos of his family. I thought that was nice.

Why would McCain have one by a landslide? Bush beat McCain easly. So why would'nt Gore?

Bush v McCain was a Republican primary, McCain v Gore would be a general election.

Exactly. Primary results are much more influenced by how much money you spend. The influence of that on General elections isn't that great actually.

That, and it's not quite the same electorate... Wink

Oh.. lucky for Gore that McCain didn't win then. Or else Gore would'nt be the popular vote winner. I guess.

No probably not, since McCain is much more moderate than Bush was.

no, McCain was the better candidate as he was more moderate, so Gore would have lost.

What's a troll?
Well, I'm sure that you know what a troll is, but I'll tell you anyway.

A troll is a poster at a forum whose lone purpose is either to:

a. stir up strouble
b. be funny
c. pretend to be a member of the other political party, in order to make a satire of the other party.

You fit into category b, and maybe a little bit of c.  You may be a conservative making fun of the Deanies.  But your incessant posting on the subject of Howard Dean leads me (and everybody else) to believe that you are a troll.

On your first day here, you posted 55 times or so, the mark of a troll.

The strange thing is that he started out as a clear troll, but has become much less trolly since he got an avatar. Maybe it's Dr. Jekyll-Mr. Hyde thing... Smiley
