Thank you. Bland feels he is in pretty good company:

"If anybody saw William Safire (a conservative writer)on Meet the Press this morning, I thought that he had a very good perspective on this mess. He said that, essentially, we had an election and it was a tie. It was a tie in every respect. The House is essentially tied; the Senate is essentially tied; the popular vote was essentially tied and Florida (and thus the electoral vote) were tied. He said that the perspectives of the two sides in deciding how to break this tie are not outrageous from either side. He also pointed out, and how right he is, that we are really lucky that we are a country that, in the case of a tie, looks to the lawyers and the courts instead of the generals and the armies."
