I doubt it. Democrats who supported the process of selective recounting should be the ones repudiated for fraud on the citizens of Florida and America.

I can hardly believe you would support such a methodology thus far. Are you a paid Gore supporter perhaps? Any reasonable person knows that hand-recounting only districts which you did well in is unethical, disingenuous and wrong if ones goal is equity and fairness.

Now, to suggest that after two recounts a further hand recount of the entire state is needed is further evidence of how far Gore supporters are willing to drag America through the dirt to change the outcome of the election.

Any reasonable analysis done of Florida will show that punch card hand recounts, in which you you measure pregnant chads, will result in more Gore votes because those districts which used punch cards were won by Gore.

And I suppose you believe it's just a coincidence that Gore won punchcard districts in Florida and didn't win any other districts??

We are talking fraud here on a large scale! Fraud and theft of an American Presidency.

You may suggest she will take political hits for this. I don't. As a matter of fact, I will personally support her financially in her next run for election if she upholds the law and tallies the results as they exist. After two recounts, and a fraudulant selective hand recount has already shifted nearly 2000 votes Gore's way. What more could Gore supporters ethically need in order to admit they lost the election in Florida?

Let me ask you this, let's say we do a full state wide hand recount and Gore loses again. Why should we believe it would end there? His team of spin meisters will probably just make up another claim of broken people, half pregnant chads not being counted, or blind citizens for that matter.

If we allow Gore and his hundreds of lawyers to continue this charade on the American people. It will never end. And every time we have an election from now on that is even remotely close. Some Senator, Congressperson or Presidential candidate will demand hand recounts in selective districts. On and on and on....

I despise these people and what they've done to the American system of justice!
