And I heard that there was also a lot of evidence that the Democrats cheated, too-- they just weren't successful. *shrug* What's done is done-- dwelling on it just breeds division. And unlike a software project, it's not a Good Thing for a country to try forking. Again, all that is just my opinion. For context, I'm (religion-wise) an Atheistic Buddhist and (politically) a Libertarian, just in case you were wondering.
