107. In 2000? Where?

Apr 2016

I lived through 2000 and there wasn't anything that was done, except for 300,000 DEMOCRATS voting for Bush in Florida. You know the DNC run Democratic party got 300,000 Florida Democrats to vote for George Bush. Had absolutely nothing to do with the left, but we got the blame.
