In short, it's a bag job!

I'm really amused by the fact that the GOP didn't "steal" the election, the Dems blew it with their own incompetence. It was a Dem who came up with the butterflies in Palm Beach. It was Dems in Palm Beach and Dade who couldn't manage, over a period of 19 or 20 days, to complete a recount (Broward and Volusia somehow seemed to be able to do it).

Ultimately, this election will boil down to judge(s), and or court assignees, counting ballots.

Sorry, but that's not correct. This is high stakes political poker and the GOP has the two aces in the hole, the Florida Legislature and control of the US House of Representatives. Gore can drag this out and make it mean, nasty and ugly, but he can't win. Them's the facts.
