I won't comment on your "Democrats are stupid" line, aside from noting that it approximates the usual level of commentary I've come to expect from conservatives on SI. But on the Miami-Dade issue, there is this contrasting account. Sometimes it’s the same lawyers. Theodore Olson, consigliere to Ken Starr and now to James Baker, is admitting that the demonstrators were choreographed by the GOP to pressure the local canvassing boards, the idea being to beat Jesse Jackson and Alan Dershowitz at their own game. Very clever. A bunch of screaming people (most smiling for the cameras) can disrupt and delay better than a series of motions filed in court. And it worked. Instead of staying outside the county building, as required by law, the demonstrators stormed in, stoked by Cuban-American radio. The canvassing-board members can be excused for feeling intimidated; unlike the rest of us, they have to live with the explosive and abusive politics of Miami. It’s the Paris Commune meets “Miami Vice,” with Bush (or is it Elian Gonzalez?) as the dauphin. msnbc.com I can believe that Cubans in the Miami area went for W 4-1, but overall, I got some doubts on that figure too.
