This is from the Washington Post site. Looking at their data, it's clear to me the wrath of the Democrats is misdirected: the Reds, not the Greens, are the *real* reason Gore lost. The craven campaign of Socialist Party candidate David McReynolds polled 602 votes in the Sunshine State, far more than the 362 votes separating Gore and Bush in Florida (at least at 6 pm today). Call me crazy, but I don't think the honorable party of Debs, Thomas and Harrington will ever be able to recover from this perfidy :)
