Re: "The Supreme Court is unlikely to let any of us walk away believing such a skewed count is fair, no matter how it comes about."

Don't be so sure. What if the United States Supreme Court unanimously says: "Whatever the Florida Supreme Court says ... goes. This is a matter for Florida to decide, not the federal government"

Then where does the Bush camp go from here?

It is nonsense to think that the purview of the Florida Supreme Court did NOT include the right to mediate two conflicting laws, which is what it did here in setting a new deadline.

Courts do this all the time, and this is hardly "legislating from the bench."
