RFK Jr.: Did Bush steal the 2004 election?

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., one of the top environmental lawyers in the country, has a new article in Rolling Stone on the question of whether the 2004 election was thrown. As someone who studied polling as a political science major, I was more than a little shocked by the media's "I guess all the exit polls were just wrong" mantra in the aftermath of the election. After all, exit polls have existed since the 1940's, and they have become more accurate with time.

I'm not saying that I'm sure Bush stole the election, but at this point, I sure wouldn't put it past these people.
