George Bush, as the Republicans keep saying over and over and over, got more votes than any presidential candidate in U.S. history.
This is certainly true, but who has received the second most votes?
John Kerry.
It's called voter turnout, people, and guess what? More voters means more votes.
George Bush not only got more votes for him than anyone in history, he also got more votes against him than anyone in history besides Kerry.
Bragging about popular votes is like bragging about how the 2004 Superbowl had (guessing here) 10 times more viewers than the 1967 airing.
It means nothing except that you're a dumbass.
