OT/The classic Cook County hustle. Minnesota Fats would love it:

Here's how this just might play out. If I'm right? This is worthy of the best of the old pros from the smoke filled rooms of Cook County, Illinois.

The major TV networks media are NOW pushing the democrat spin to con the public into accepting the biggest HAND JOB in history, lol. Because?

"Oh,...not to worry all you viewers out there (we keep hearing over and over) Gore is picking up far fewer votes in these hand recounts than expected". Uh huh...

Boy, what a sweet pitch. If there was ever a classic hook to draw the naive "mark" into the game this is it.

Miss a few shots early, on purpose, while hiding your power to run the table. That's the time tested way to trick the mark into betting the farm on winning the game i.e. tricking the public into accepting into this hand recount SCHEME.

So when the Florida Supreme Court rules for Gore, tomorrow or the next day, there's a protest by Bush people, but a much smaller %age of the public is up in arms than expected.

What me worry?", they say when polled, "Gore can't win it anyway, WHY are the Republicans "afraid" of the recount?

Again the TV networks are "carrying the water" for the Gore forces. Minnesota Fats just smiles.

But once the money or the true political "coin of the relm" - more neutral OR perhaps even favorable poll numbers - are slapped on the screen in your living room?

Then it's time for the demo machines to run the table for Gore.

You see, it's been reported, BUT only a few times. The HUSTLE is that ALL the questionable and disputed ballots for Gore in both Palm Beach and Broward have been set aside and NOT included in the numbers released so far.

Believe it! Right at the end of the hand recount process with little or no time for the Bush forces to maneuver...WHAM. Minnesota Fats surprises the naive mark and runs the table. Gore votes flood in and he pulls ahead by at least several thousand votes.

Then we'll see how the media spun and suckered in public reacts to the Florida State Legislature stepping in to make the final decision (as specified in the State's Constitution) on which candidate Floridas electors will be pledged to.

HEAR YE, HEAR YE. This gonna be "d' BIG ugly" unless one guy just folds...
