That will last until the first time that a Republican wins the national popular vote. Then we will be able to watch them squirm to find reasons that they can't do that.

In 2000, the Gore camp foresaw the likelyhood of a popular/electoral vote split, and busily reminded everyone that it was the EC vote that counted. Payback's a beyotch.
