Sore losers don't bother me, Ken. After all Nixon made the famous "You won't have me to kick around any more" comment after losing the CA governor race in the early 60's, if my memory serves me well. What I don't like is corruption and trying to steal the election. I disagree with James and Starowl. In my opinion, Katherine Harris was exactly right in her decision. When I was young, I worked with the IBM 1620 computer, one of the earliest. It read punch cards. It would have been a snap to program the computer to kick out any ballots not counted for any reason. Review of those by hand should have easily been done within the statutory week allowed to finalize the count. Recounting any ballots by hand with one single clearly punched hole for President is absolutely ludicrous. Any difference from the machine count of those is human error! (In all of those counties, the ambiguous votes are in the 10-20,000 range at most.) I would add that I used to sort and count punched cards all the time. Of course, the correct check was to hold a deck up to the light to see if the sorting hole went clear through the deck. I never had any problems.
