How many electorial votes did gore lose by losing his home state? How many in Fla? Wouldn't wining Tenn have put him over the top?

Yes, if Gore had won his own home state he would have beaten GWB even after a defeat in Fla; pathetic isn't it?

[Joe Boucher]

yes it would have put him over the top but he had become too liberal for his,"home state". Problem is Tennessee has never been his home. He has always been a washington resident except on vacation and holiday.

There had been rumor that he and the seriously fat and ugly broad he is married to had bought a Bar-B-Que restaurant. I think he should have made good on that rumor. There again is a problem because we all know he couldn't make a go of anything without gubmnt assistance.

Yep. Winning any other state would have given him the 2 extra electoral votes he needed.

Now one thing I would love to see someone ask Gore about in light of his criticism of Bush's handling of the war is the report he was in charge of recommending changes in the airline industry. The original draft called for putting breach-proof doors on airliners. That was pulled from the report at the last minute, under heavy lobbying from the airline industry, and the week after the report came out they gave the DNC $100,000. In reality Algore could have prevented 9/11 but put campaign cash ahead of human lives. If Gore runs that should be the first campaign ad produced by his opponents. And if the other Dems don't use it, Bush should.
