<<How about the "disenfranchised" voters in the Florida panhandle that heard that Bush had lost Florida to Gore before the polls even closed? Should we conduct a new
election in the panhandle? How about all of the other voters, nationwide, who decided to not go to the polls when it appeared that Bush was on the road to losing the
electoral college? Would Gore have a lead in the popular vote if the media had not violated the public trust? >>

first of all that argument could work both ways - how many Gore supporters didn't go because they thought he had it sewed up .... but secondly and more importantly, the president wasn't the only office on the ballot - so you're telling me these people could care less about their state and local races even though these are races that actually have more bearing on them?
