But it appears that, given a ballot that people filled out as they'd intended, the result would have been the election of Al Gore. Not that Gore is a saint, by any means. He has always come across as stiff and phony. But he was at least a benign choice. On the other hand, having Dubya in the White House has been catastrophic. He has plunged the United States into a double dip recession, bungled diplomacy in the Middle East, squandered the budget surplus, set the stage for wholesale destruction of the environment, lost the US millions of jobs, put foxes in every government henhouse, and is preparing to go to war with Iraq primarily to avenge a family grudge.
