Okay GZ,

Bush and his party made a serious mistake early on with the Florida election.

Reason:
If I were a county ballot counter, any where in the USA, charged with the duty of rendering a competent vote on demand to my legislature.., I would have had "IN PLACE" a system for counting, by hand any and all votes that were discharged by the machines as unknown...! And I would have had "IN PLACE" a workable understanding from both parties as to what should be included as understood by the legislature of my respective state.

Bush should have embraced the inclusion of hand counts and fought for a reasonable inclusion based on an acceptable standard of what vote was to be included and not fought for there total "EXCLUSION."

Had he done that, he might now be an unencumbered President Elect.
Unfortunately he chose his handlers arrogant suppositions.

Bush is the loser in this.., both publicly and privately.
