I think my add on in a tactful sort of way acknowledges the overstatement. Overstatement and hyperbole isn't exactly a rare event for the thread. Your correct, on Justice Wells in his position; it was one of the other dissenting Justices that indicated that Sauls had mis-interpreted the law with respect to the contested phase as well as the majority opinion.

One of the phrases by Justice Wells that caught my attention was Constitutional Crisis, which I don't think he elaborated upon. Not a new phrase with respect to the election, but I've asked much earlier [on this thread I think]. What exactly is the Constitutional Crisis that is referred to with such frequency over the last couple of weeks? No one ever responded and it was quite interesting to see Sen Hatch and James Baker last night on CNN unable to answer the question either [other than to say...we never said it was a Constitutional crisis, Judge wells said it was a Constitutional crisis...it appears to remain a mythical crisis.

Not to worry though, if the manual review of the undercount votes is completed, there is no doubt that Governor Bush will pick up substantial votes. It's clear.
