wayne, this election was to democracy what las vegas is to capitalism. iow, it wasn't pretty.

however, in order to retain my intellectual integrity, i have to be glad that the guy who won the non manipulated count won the election vs the guy who was trying to manipulate a win (and got lots of help from the fl supreme court to do just that).

those should not have been the only two choices, however, the las vegas decmocracy tossed all rational methods of contesting out the door.

some will say the us supreme court was gutless to basically blame this mess on the ineptitude of the fl supreme court. i would too... if the fl supreme court didn't show themselves to be near retarded when it cam to issues of basic fairness and common sense.

in my view, the above are facts, not opinion.

now, everyone pray that bush does not follow up on his stupid campaign promises and that he doesn't get right wing justices appointed.
