No... there was a significant amount of FReepers who weren't exactly sold on GWB, and the stakes were nowhere near as high. In general, we were confident of a GWB win, as he was starting to open up the polls until the non-story about the DWI broke in the final week.
Was the anger towards the MSM as strong?
Not really... FR is pretty antagonistic toward the MSM in the best of times, after all, one of the best servies FR provides is a reality check on the MSM. And while it was obvious the MSM was biased and pulling for Gore, it was nowhere near as bad as the overt cheerleading this time around. Certainly the calling of Florida early (before the pnahandle polls closed) caused an uproar.
Were concerns of voter fraud as high?
I'd say no. There were concerns, of course, but we had not experienced such a massive amount of fraud since Kennedy/Nixon, and many of us weren't alive (like myself) or old enough to remember that election. Having the Gore team try to steal the election in Florida (and other states) made 'rat fraud a serious issue rather than just an accepted built-in handicap in the system. This year's "win at any cost" mentality inherent in the "ABB" crowd has put a much higher emphasis on vote fraud, especially since the 'rats have telegraphed that they're going to do it big time by threatening anyone who challeges fraudulent votes with a disenfranchisement lawsuit.
Your statement on vote fraud is right on the money.
I think you summed it up rather succinctly.
