If those issues are not resolved, a significant portion of the country will not assign the moral authority to lead to Bush. A cloud, a taint, whatever you want to call it, will prevail

With all due respect TG, the significant portion you refer to will never assign Bush the moral authority to lead. This is the "ends justify the means" crowd.

Another report you won't hear on mainstream TV.
Even before Election Day, a controversy erupted in Wisconsin over allegations that homeless people in Milwaukee had been paid in cigarettes to vote for Gore.

Constance Milstein, a longtime donor to Democratic candidates, went to Milwaukee homeless shelters last weekend to recruit voters. Men from one homeless mission told a local television station that they had been offered packs of cigarettes after they cast absentee ballots - but they said they weren’t told for whom to vote.
