It's funny this is W. Va. one of my Profs. was discussing how Bush won and he said it wasn't Florida, it was west Virginia because the NRA spent millions in that state on horrific ads telling them that if Gore were elected he'd take away their guns. West Virginia then said, we are a Dem state but we want our guns and so.... Bush was elected.
I'd have to agree. This is where the electoral college comes in. The smallest state with just 5 votes can decide an election.
Funny how there are some Bush supporters speaking out against the EC, had it not been for the EC Gore would be running for re-election, not Bush.
