"In many ways, it has just begun"

I think Bush is a business as usual insider, and not too sharp either. I didn't vote for either candidate (I did like Nader).

But maybe you can explain the democrats position on this because I find it unbelievable. Do you really believe--with the benefit or 20/20 hindight--that Gore can can now search the four democratic stongholds in what we know is the swing state looking for problems? Why not revisit the other Florida counties too? For that matter--how do you know 50,000 people in pennsylavnia didn't mistakenly vote for Gore? The irregularities that democratic partisans like yourself are bandying seem fairly typical on election day. Things never go perfectly. You just hope that the problems cancel out overall.

What is not normal is Gore's legal challenge. He must figure he has a shot, regardless of what the law is, if he draws the right judge. But these are lines that politicians--even the likes of Nixon--would never have crossed in the past because they had modicum, just a tiny sliver, of integrity. If a certified recount shows Gore won, so be it. He is our president. But if the recount shows Bush won, and Gore goes to court, he gets my vote for ass of the millenium.
