Great read.....
"I have my own theory about the "National Popular Vote" movement. I suspect it's another outgrowth of Bush Derangement Syndrome.
In 2000, Al Gore -- arguably -- won the popular vote. That means diddly, however, and everyone knew that going in (or, at least should have). I once ran the numbers, and discovered that, in theory, a president could be elected by a mere 12 votes.
That stuck in the craws of a lot of people who hated Bush, and would latch on to any excuse -- any -- to delegitimize his administration. Even this post facto, unconstitutional, undemocratic exercise in idiocy."

The National Popular Vote effort is completely grounded in what's best for the future of our democracy, not the past. What's broken is that two-thirds of states are absolutely, completely ignored -- including nearly every small population state.
