This is the second time in the last few days someone's said something like this (and I'm not attributing the quotes because I happen to like the posters very much and don't want any debating to get personal) and if it were still Dec-00 or Jan-01 I could see saying this, but last summer there were multiple reports about recounts, including one in the New York Times (hardly a big supporter of the GOP) declaring that under every conceivable recount scenario in Florida Bush would have wound up with the most votes, regardless of what the Supreme Court decided. (and no, I am not a Republican) There aren't any facts left under which to claim that anyone stole the election--- a year ago, maybe, but not now.
