Yup.

Gore almost won.
Kerry almost won.

Gore lost by a statistical fluke involving only a couple hundred ballots.
Kerry lost only by the rantings of a few dozen veterans.

Both did nearly everything they could to sabatoge their own runs.
Yet they very nearly won.

Hillary, despite all our digs, has a passionate loyal following, became the carpet-bagging Senator from a state that should have despised her, has a team that won the White House twice before, and has been crafting her 2008 run for DECADES.

If Gore & Kerry could come that close to winning, Hillary can't lose.
And the Republicans still have nobody to run.

Remember the final vote was 286 to 252. Which red states would Hillary have to pick off to win? Arkansas? Ohio?

Close Bush States (5-9.99%)
66 Electoral Votes

Arkansas (6) - 9%
Virginia (13) - 9%
Missouri (11) - 8%
Colorado (9) - 7%
Florida (27) - 5%


Really Close Bush States (4.99% or less)
37 Electoral Votes

Nevada (5) - 3%
Ohio (20) - 2%
Iowa (7) - 1%
New Mexico (5) - 1%

Sorry for some reason the map isn't printing out, even when I corrected the html.

I understand your concern and the logic that you are using.

But.......even Gore and Kerry didn't have the high negatives that Thunder Thighs Hillary has. Add to that the fact that the reason Kerry got so close was because of the Bush haters, and only because of that. President Bush will NOT be running this time.

I truly believe that a Hillary nomination would be an absolute disaster for the democRATS.

With that said, I am taking NOTHING for granted, and I will do whatever I can to make sure she never steps a foot into the White House again!!
