Such fantastic historical revisionism! It was the Democrats who had a re-count plan laid out well before the election even took place, expecting Florida to be close and possibly pivotal. It was the Democrats who chartered airplanes and flew 200 lawyers and investigators into Florida right after the polls closed. It was the Democrats who carefully selected their stronghold counties to re-count, thereby triggering the small variations in a few precincts that were incorrectly extrapolated county-wide and state-wide to make a small number look large. It's almost a patented process, developed by the Daley machine decades ago. The Supreme Court, when finally given the issue to decide, determined 7-2 that it violated the Equal Protection clause of the United States Constitution.

Republicans cannot and did not create impossible legal hurdles. The United States Constitution did. You shouldn't let your rabid partisanship completely blind you to the facts.
