I believe that if they didn't they would lose the election.

Typical democratic cowardice.
I'm a long ass way from being a republican. I'm to the left of you.
Um, cawacko: things have changed in the last ten years.
its called the "fuck the south" strategy. The south became so deep red, that Dems like Gore wrote it off - except for flordia.
Same for repubs: they have a "fuck the northeast and west coast" stragegy.
Were you aware that republican candidates used to routinely win in states like New Jersey, New Hampshire, Maine and California? They practically don't even bother with those states anymore.
I did not say you were, I merely said you are displaying a typical Republican attitude.
Its the rape victims fault because she did not go to the police afterward?
If they were running against somebody that couldn't speak clearly or come up with a strong argument on the fly, whose only success was winning the Governorship of their state.
Yes, I would say they were running a pretty crappy election in order to lose. That and that they weren't strong candidates to begin with.
I disagree. One good terror scare, and there will be plenty of them, and Americans are going run to the polls to vote for daddy, no matter what they tell the pollsters. And the republicans are going to put up a daddy.

Absolutely they did and they snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
Too bad democrats do not possess that same will.
Pittafull, you are turning a blind eye to the fact that Gulianni could not win NY if he were running against a turnip!

LOL!!!!!!!! Someone calling Blackascoal a Republican!?!?!? Oh man, that might be the funniest thing I have ever read on this board.
I think he is pretty clear on where he stands politically and a Republican he is not.

I agree that Americans are the scariest people on the planet, but I do not agree that a terropr scare will send them running to "daddy" this election.

So who do we blame for this, I belive it should be the Republicans!

Not necessarily bad campaigners, but bad candidates... yes.
There was an impeachment in 98. The republican attack machine all throughout the 90's that lead up to it.
Those events polarized this country bac, and it has remained so since. That is why Gore could not win Tennesse, nor could have Clinton were he running again. NOw, I don't expect Damo to admit this, because to do so he would have to admit what the Republican party became in the 90's (really in the 80's) and he's not going to do that, but can you tell me that you dismiss this?
What you're doing is blaming the democrats for being wimps. Which I tend to agree with.
Hopefully, you aren't blaming them for doing most of the actual dirty deeds: voter caging, voter suppression, and dirty tricks. In my view, its the republicans mostly doing that.

I doubt you will ever convince the country to amend the constitution if you cannot even get a few of the larger states on board with the concept.

Forget blame .. what lessons were learned from 2000?
One should have been weakness doesn't work
Another SHOULD have been protect the integrity of the vote
Democrats haven't learned either lesson and you cannot continue to blame republicans for democratic weakness.
Joe Lieberman was not an issue in 2000 to anyone other than a handful of leftist activists.
Gore did make a big mistake in caving into the noise and running away from Bill Clinton. And yet, he still won the election.
The election was stolen. You know who I blame for that? The people who stole it. Oh, and also, the idiots, some right here on this board, who still deny it was stolen. But that is retroactive blame.
