We'll see who is inaugurated on Jan. 20th. I believe in the Constitution and the Rule of Law. Whoever wins Florida, wins the election.

A little difficult for you to swallow?!

The popular vote was skewed because of early and irresponsible reporting that Gore had taken Florida and other prizes, which had that been the case, it would've guaranteed a Gore victory. Discouraged voters were reported to leave the lines in the panhandle of Florida, among other states, because of the thought that the state was lost to Gore.

Your boy's pop vote victory is suspect. I wouldn't crow about it too much. Furthermore, its interesting that an incumbent vice president, in a time of peace and prosperity only takes 200,000 or so more votes nationally than his challenger. Should've been a landslide if he was worth it. Also funny that the people that know Gore the best, his fellow Tennesseans, voted in majority for Bush. Coincidence? I think not.
