"The Revolution of 1800"

Anyone answering the questions below about Jefferson's claim that his election to the presidency represented a "Revolution of 1800" should read the letters in which he makes that claim. (I just posted these in the online reader.) The question I would like the honors section (and anyone else) to answer is, was Jefferson's claim remotely accurate? What arguments can be made for and against it? If you want to find what I think about this question, an article I wrote on it is available on my web site.
