The Problem With Second Choices

JB

I see that Bush is now running an ad noting that McCain was Kerry's first choice for Vice-President.

The Dems should run an ad noting that Al Gore was the country's first choice for President.

(McCain on Bush, in his own words!)
 

Please remember that of all the people choosing Vice-Presidential candidates, only Cheney got his first choice.
 

This isn't about Florida. This is about how Gore won the popular vote, and yet was still portrayed (after Fox News's lead) as someone working the system as a loser. And remember that it was Bush's team in 2000 which prepared explicitly for losing the Electoral College, but winning the popular vote, planning for 'spontaneous' demonstrations and petitions to electors to reflect the 'popular will' of the American people.
