But he noted he came within 60,000 votes of the White House

Huh? he lost Ohio by over 100,000 alone.

Yeah... if Bush had carried New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan - Jean Francois still wouldn't be President even if he had won Ohio. Two can play this "What If" fantasy.

I am getting so damned f**king ('scuse the language but it's the only term that expresses how steamed I am) tired about hearing about this "only," "just," etc. 60,000 votes crap. All I have to say to that is--well, if not for 7,000 votes in WI or 5,000 votes in NH, OH could have gone to Kerry by 100% and it wouldn't matter. So there. Hah.

And I find it absolutely hilarious how the dems have done a total about-face--they are only concentrating on the electoral vote (if Kerry had prevailed) when I thought they cared SO MUCH about only the popular vote.

3.7 million - is what he lost by - not 60,000

[snarks_when_bored]

If you subtract 60,000 (or so) votes from Bush in Ohio and give them to Kerry, Kerry wins.

But let's not contemplate such a doomsday scenario, okay? It's too early in the morning.

Everyday it's a new one...put a lid on it. Get over it.

I was a little confused by that myself. I wonder if he is trying to make that a new talking point. That he lost by a smaller and smaller margin.
Can't do much about the 4 million nation wide!
