jmac - without engaging you on the substance, I just wish to point out that CNN has been making the point repeatedly during the last 1-1/2 hours I've been watching that results have been certified so far in only 53 counties. The Democrats have requested manual recounts in 4. There are 10 possible left uncertified in which requests for manual recounts can be requested. No one talks about the States in which electoral votes are unlikely to be changed but recounts could affect the popular vote. Hre in NYC numerous bad votes are always cast; others are prevented; registrations are screwed up; etc. If we really looked closely throughout the country, we might even reverse the present situation - Bush popular, Gore electoral. I hope I live long enough to give serious historians time to write and research on this election. Perhaps the Constitutional Amendment someone ought to propose is a universal system and ballot for Federal offices which should be Federal, not State, prerogative. This is both fascinating and scary; we will have to wait until the 2002 elections to break the essential Congressional tie and alleviate what will undoubtedly be a stalemated 2 years. Hopefully this week the market will realize that stalemate is good - either that or will realize that Qcom is so good that its rise will offset all my other losses in everything I own. Do prayers help? John
