The last time I remember it having any vigor was after the 2000 election.
The sore losers were from the same side as this time, and were so equally
confident that they could win without trying that they were also beside
themselves with disbelief when they lost.

The difference between last time and this time was that last time was
followed fairly shortly by 9/11.  The country forgot the election and pulled
back together.  This time, they've just kept on in disbelief and trying to
come up with ways to fix something that is not broken.

Basically, if they "fix the system," they know that they can pretty much
fix every Presidential election from here on out so that they never lose.
