When Bush 'won' in 2004... the Golden Days of the DU BTW LOL... but when Bush won, it was very clear but this time... aside from some pretty clear voter suppression and rather questionable tactics, there's not much to support a straight up hack.

Not to me... if anyone is trying to convince me of a hack of the system and an outright steal... that has not happened yet. I don't put it past him... I just don't see it. I don't know as much about it as some but it's not as clear as it was in 2004... I think we lost because America just didn't like the idea of a Woman and even worse... a DEI Hire as they call it... I had no idea how much that idea is hated out there...

I have literally been in my lab for years working on math so I had no idea people gave a shit about that... I honestly thought we had that shit figured out in the 80's. Who cares what your skin color or gender is like... what color is your money and do you have any coke... that's pretty much where I thought we left it... damn... I feel like Rip Van Winkle... or Rip Van Halen I should Say LOL....
