I wonder how many Freepers on this thread tonight were members during the 2000 elections. Some of course, were not even born yet, but I’m sure that many did not experience the Sore Loserman dust up.
They have a name for close elections like this: A Win!
Close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades, so the great Blue Wave zealots will tuck their tails between their legs and come up with another fantasy story to explain why they are losers yet again.
A note for all on this thread tonight: never, never, never believe what the media and the pollsters tell you, especially including Fox News news division.

members during the 2000 electionsA few of us were around. IIRC, some of us, not me, were even heroes who went to Dade County and monitored the hanging chad count. Guennie, you earned my respect during that time.

Not just the election, but the shitestorm at the USSC afterward plus a great FReep at the Naval Observatory that we were told had Gork bailing outta the place thru one of the other entrances .. LOL !
Wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Went down to Tallahassee when the FL Supreme Court made their decision. Wife, kids and I had homemade sore loserman signs.

I was a lurker back then. Lots of Free Republic, Newsmax, Fox News and Rush Limbaugh during those 2000 Florida recount days. Remember watching cable news seeing protesters on our side holding Free Republic and Newsmax signs!

I haven't posted on the thread tonight, been following it though. I've been on FR since 1997, and remember Sore/Loserman well. I also remember people from FR protesting outside Gore's residence, telling him to get out of Cheney's house. Fun times.
