...I was just thinking last night that the one person who cost Gore the election was Susan Gunzberger in Broward County. She was the one who wanted to count every dimple for Gore, and showed how subjective the whole process was.


Nothing subjective about that. Her object was to create Gore votes, so all her actions were objective. -g-

But you're right. As soon Gore picked up 500+ votes in Broward County recounts, his only chance of a legitimate win would have been to have the FSC throw them out and include Broward in a legitimate recount that passed the laugh test. Since Gore didn't really believe that he would win such a count, he couldn't agree to risk losing the existing Broward count and used up too much time to revisit that decision.

Regards, Don
