I think we agree that given the underlying economic rot, unperceived by 99% of the populace, there are going to be some major readjustments, to use the polite term, rather soon.

In that case, it would be a terrific opportunity for Gore to step graciously aside and let Bush go down the tubes.

But woulc the DNC let him do this?

Next, if this doesn't get settled in a week or two, how long before the rest of the world concludes that the United States is not a great island of stability and starts to pull some money out?

I do not know, but I do know that I was convinced that something would come along that would pull all the toothpicks out of the structure they are holding up, and this could be it. Better than a nuclear satchell bomb in the Empire State Building ( a real possibility now).

So . . .look on the bright side. Merely a constitutional crisis.
