    What isnt surprising is that an obviously left-leaning poster wouldn't educate itself to know that W is not currently accepting donations via this site.

    Now, if your "Surprise, Surprise" was intended as a knock on the quality or popularity of the candidate based on funds raised (which it clearly was),this website seems to indicate W pretty much owns their peepees. Is that what you intended?

Read the Constitution and you will find that we are not a republic and the majority of the states elect the president not the majority of the people. And the interest of those in the cities is vastly different those those in less populated areas.
