Pretty much everything you need to know that the guy was not only a thief in 2000 but also in 2004. The Mainstream Media wilfully ignore not only the massive corruption in the Whitehouse (and the Bush family) but also the pretty blatant destruction of democracy the Republicans have been responsible for. If the GOP does "much better than expected" in this year's elections you can bet your life it won't be down to the public vote.
