As I recall, none of what mention struck people here as important during the last week of the campaign. Nor does any of these excoriations show up meaningfully in the exit polling or exit interviews.

In fact, 5-10% of Gore support left him in the day or two after Election Day and more or less went over to Bush. Check the pollings.

I invite you watch videotapes of the Republican National Convention. That ran Bush up to 55%. Have a look at it and explain why. It has nothing to do with Kerry. Then read the exit polling and exit interview analyses.

You're being a part of the problem rather than part of the solution by just grabbing this sort of stuff out of your ass.
