Both times Bush was elected it was controversial.  I'm still angry with 
Gore for not fighting harder for the Florida recount the first time 
around.

But as for why he was elected either time:  Karl Rove.  He's a bastard, 
but a smart bastard, and he knows how to say what people want to hear.

The presidential election isn't a popular vote, it's a representative 
vote.  That means you can lose the popular vote and still win.
