But unless he changes what he's doing, Simon might very well blow this golden opportunity.

Don't bet on it.

Bush lost California by three (count 'em, three) votes per precinct.

The hurdle is not as high as the media would like us to believe. Gill Scott Heron had a silly song in the early 70's "the revolution will not be televised" ..., well, he's finally right, but it's a different revolution than he had in mind.

BTW, what did you do today to stop Davis and help Simon? FReepmail me if you want to get involved in the volunteer effort. FRegards!

I don't know where you came up with that "three votes per precinct" statistic, but you're way, way off.

California has a total of 25,702 precincts. Gore beat Bush by 1,293,774 votes in 2000. That's just over 50 votes per precinct.

And yes, that is a very high hurdle indeed for Republicans to overcome.
