John Mac Stipanovich Worst Person In The World (Bush 2000)


So tonight on CNN's special report on Election 2000, this man was featured. He was the "manager" of the effort to push Bush over the top in election 2000.

Here is what he said tonight when asked for his final thoughts:

"This was a coup attempt by Gore that we managed to thwart."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And this is after he said earlier in the program that more people intended to vote for Al Gore than Bush.

And here is what he said he told his troops on the ground in Florida. "Do you want to be ideologically pure, or do you want to win?"

WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD. Smarmy smug bastard.

Specifically, the chapter where he "dramatizes" Stipanovich's encounters with Katherine Harris during the 2000 recount LOL!
