I hear lots of talk about how the Repubs and the Dems aren't being fair in the primary process.

But NO ONE that I know of has mentioned how unfair the 2000 election was

Back then, my daughter told me she knew Repubs who planned to insist that W be President if W won the popular vote and lost the electoral vote.
