The Supreme Court of the U.S. will hear not only arguments presented by the Bush campaign but also its own question(s). There are issues of fairness in dealing with military ballots. Fairness of the courts, elected bodies, etc. in responding to (and/or refusing to respond to) requests for recounts. Fairness of the courts when setting recount deadlines. Etc.

Anyone who has ever been to court knows that no outcome is certain.

IMHO, when all is said and done, the Supreme Court will rule that the State of Florida failed to follow its own laws and has failed in assuring the "one man, one vote" rule. They will also rule that the Legistlature of Florida has no right to make any laws that retroactively affect a Presidential election.

IMHO, It is possible that the US Supreme Court will find that the State of Florida failed to meet its implied constitutional responsibilities with respect to this election and/or the appointment of electors (to the Electoral College). If so ordered, Florida's EC votes would be denied and Gore will become the next US President (by virtue of the fact that aside from FL, he won a majority of the electors -- not to mention the majority vote as well).

To be honest, I don't care nearly as much about "who" wins as much as having "someone" win. Anyone who wishes to express a contrary opinion is welcome.
