<<Now I do not like either Bush or Gore, but fair is fair.>> and people have to take responsibility for themselves instead of blaming everyone else. Freakouts in the voting booth are tough to blame on anyone else but the freaker outer. I myself missed an initiative because I didn't see it. Whoops. My bad. That's just it, it's MY bad, not anyone elses.

Fair is fair? Didn't democrats design that ballot George? Oh well, I can hear the Democrat propaganda ministers now: "Those mean old Republicans screwed Grandma out of her vote." Puhhhhleeease! This is such an obvious ploy to get lawyers involved it's not even funny. Since Jeb Bush has recused himself why doesn't the Florida AG? I mean, after all he is the head of Gore's campaign in Florida, is he not? Kinda like letting the fox watch the henhouse while the bloodhound is tied up and drugged outside the fence. He He. As Tommaso told us the Demos are past masters at the art of stealing an election. He He. Ooooooo the democrat propaganda ministers will descend on Florida now like a plague of locusts. They will garner the lions share of TV coverage. Bet on it! This is all too predictable. Too bad Clinton screwed the military so bad 8 years straight. My bet is those military absentee ballots do his boy Gore in.

On the news they said that 36,000 votes were thrown out for double-punching of the ballot, as voters evidently tried to correct their mistakes. And I have several times see close-ups of the ballots. They were indeed somewhat confusing. This is all very unfortunate.

OT - Fair is Fair...now that's rich. What about the media reporting Florida going to Gore 1 hour after polls had closed in Florida. I for one thought the election was over. It certainly took the wind out of any Bush supporters. I wonder how many simply went home? If we went across the country we could probably compile a list of 100+ things that weren't "fair" for either side. This opens up too big a pandora's box imho. Even if Gore wins the recount (which would be very suspicious imo), then Bush will wait for ALL the absentee ballots to arrive to FL which means this thing will drag on for 2 more weeks only to confirm that GW won. Military ballots have been known to go Republican as much as 8 to 1. No disrespect intended George, but I think you're wrong on this one.
