I think Bush would have won by a larger margin in 2004, too.

The problem with this ME/NE system is gerrymandering.

I agree. I think gerrymandering is a problem that needs to be addressed first, or simultaneously to reforming to the ME/NE method. If a state reformed to the ME/NE method first, it would create even less incentive to reform its redistricting procedure to remove the gerrymander.
