RE:"Another victim of CNN. Had they been judicious enough to leave FL in the undecided column, you wouldn't be saying this crap. Even though Gore has a 5,000 vote lead in Oregon, nobody is declaring him the winner, because the networks were disinterested enough to keep their mouths shut."

In FL we had a COUNT and a RECOUNT...
If the absentee ballots hold even in FL, as far as I'm concerned, Bush wins the election. Even if New Mexico and Oregon go for Gore...the electoral college count is 271-267 Bush.

I would SAY THE SAME THING if things were reversed and Gore had the lead in FL.
Allowing selected hand recounts in FL is not fair...
and I really try to be fair...
Right now, only FL matters unless Iowa or Wisconsin come into play.
