25. Think for more than half a second, please.
The surpreme court and the president's brother chose chimpy in 2000.

In 2002--thanks to the way we do the legislative branch and which seats were up, 11 percent of the people, mostly in red states, chose a third the senate. House incumbents win 99 percent of the time, and guys had flown planes into buildings resulting in a 68 percent popular president on election day.

In 2003, one guy spent millions to start a recall then ran a hollywood movie star against a 20 percent approval governor of california.

And we still got more votes than they did in every single one of those elections.

Think about it: if there was no Jeb or Scalia, Gore is president. If there were no september 11, 2002 would have been a typical midterm election. And if there were no Issa, there would be no Arnold.

They ain't winning shit. And it's time we start fighting like we know it.
