Unlikely. A majority of people just want to pick a side and rabidly defend it.
For example, the democrats contesting the Bush-Gore Florida results was just "sour grapes," but conservatives clamouring to see Obama's "long form" birth certificate to prove that he wasn't eligible for office wasn't?
- anthony_romeo 10y agoAgreed, and the likely response is "You can't complain, Obama did it!" And the cycle goes back and forth. Just like trying to, say, filibuster the nomination of Supreme Court justices.
- serge2k 10y agoAn insanely close election vs a racist conspiracy theory? False equivalency.
