You are absolutely rigth of course. As a liberal I have taken to copying 
those conservative paragons of virtue including Limbaugh, Hannety, O'Reilly, 
Helms, Gindrich,. Boy, I the number of civil conservatives who are always 
respectful of those with differeing opinions just goes on and on forever. 

By the way, it isn't clear how a dislike of Bush correlates to votes against 
Gore. I don't think any of the Dems took him for granted if that what you are 
trying to imply. The race was close throughout and Gore and his people knew 
he was in a dog fight.
