Plus there was the media that cut all of Kerry's best sound bytes while cutting all of Bush's worst sound bytes.

Besides, Gore would have won his second term. And by the way, 9/11 probably wouldn't have happened, as Gore was used to taking Richard Clarke and his team seriously. Unlike Bush and Condi, who ignored them.
