74. A faulty comparision...

... as far as I'm concerned. In 2000 we had a sitting vice president who was essentially the presumptive nominee. His only significant challenger, Bill Bradley, never gained a competetive position, consistently lagged in the polls and never managed to win a single primary. By the time Florida's primary came around Gore has an 18 state winning streak. Their votes were as meaningless then as they were this year, therefore you have no premise on which to base that comparision.
