Ignoring all the partisan fights here, it is INTERESTING that the Electoral College has actually benefited the Democrats in the presidential elections since 2000. In 2004, a uniform swing less than Bush's national popular vote margin would have given Kerry Ohio and the election...also Iowa and New Mexico.
Really though, it's just a function of how the states allocate electoral votes (winner-take-all). Maybe PR (not CD's) would be fairest of all...
