A little known NH Primary factoid
Folks, can we try to get it right - at least the right party?
Weird fact of the day, even weirder than Viggo Mortensen campaigning with Dennis Kucinich: In 2000, John McCain got 3,320 votes in the Democratic primary, good for 2.15 percent.
Steve Forbes got 998 votes, or .65 percent; George W. Bush got 827 votes, or .54 percent. Alan Keyes 424 votes.
Cannot blame it on the cold or the weather this year - the snow is melting as temps are sustaining above freezing for the first time in weeks. Cloudy (perhaps), but no real showers expected tomorrow. Besides - you'll be inside.
Bring your glasses and the thinking caps - concentrate! And if you think it is just the Dems - keep reading:
On the Republican side, Al Gore got 1,155 votes, good for .48 percent, and Bill Bradley received 1,025 votes, good for .43 percent. Elizabeth Dole, who had dropped out, had 231 votes
The fact that any Dem got Republican votes is embarrasing....and V.V.
After all, there's only one set of names to pick from folks!
