bush won by the LOWEST percentage of EV since WILSON

[LynnTheDem]

Assuming Bush gets New Mexico and Iowa, he will have gotten the lowest percentage of electoral votes (54%) of any incumbent running for reelection since Wilson. If those two states should swing Kerry's way (NM might), it'll be even lower.


CELEBRATE, stupid silly foolish rightwingnuts, coz your bush-god has won with the LOWEST EV since Prez WILSON. SOME "BROAD NATIONWIDE VICTORY"! LOL!!!

1. But he is the first president to win a majority since daddy

And he won more votes than any other president (nevermind that the population of the USA is higher than ever before).

Oh yes, if you listen to the media, it was a huge blowout.

2. TWO things; SO DID KERRY get record number of votes, and...

This is the largest number of people who have ever voted AGAINST a president.

3. Shhh

People want to get behind the president. Haven't you heard? He's also going to govern in a bipartisan manner, they tell me. That's good to know.

4. But he won. In the end, that's all that matters.

:-(

5. he had 278 in 2000

that's less than this year IF he ends up getting Iowa and New Mexico.

6. I gotta say...leftys sure do NOT know how to win spin wars.

FACT: This is the LARGEST number of people EVER to vote AGAINST a president.

7. Actually, that's not completely accurate either...

In 1992, Poppy got 39,103,882 and Perot got 19,741,657 for a total of 58,845,539 people that did not vote for the Big Dog.

8. More accurate for Lynn to say:

Kerry got the most votes of any challenger ever.

9. You could also say, referring to the 92 election,

44,909,326 + 19,741,657 = 64,650,983, Poppy got the most votes against a sitting president.

10. Kerry got more votes than Ronald Reagan!

Kerry is more popular than Reagan, he got more votes than Reagan ever did!
