But neither Bush Sr. nor Dole got more votes than Clinton, did they, Joe? Looks like Gore got more votes than W. You have to go back to Rutherford B. Hayes to match W's mandate without a plurality.

Joe, Re <recount> I totally fail to understand the excitement and naivity around this issue. Radio is tired to repeat that "it is a serious business". If it is so serious, is not it entirely impossible, given unfounded "slow" arrival of vote counts from the late half of precincts (and when it become clear that Gore is going to win Florida), that the ballot boxes may be "corrected" by supervising party sergeants? Now it does not matter how count or re-count the ballots.
