Scumbria, re:"Face it. Gore should have won the election, as the exit polling had previously indicated. Lots of people did not successfully vote for who they intended, and now we have a major constitutional problem on our hands." We do not have a constitutional problem on our hands. Floridians will take care of their own election and provide us the results after their requirements are met. I am sorry this doesn't fit with your opinion of how our country should be; with "your" federal government powers to dictate what each sovereign state chooses to do within their own borders. The federal government already abuses the sovereign rights of each state. Our country's constitution is the foundation of these United States. Claiming the Governor of Florida rigged the election is weak at best and a desperate accusation. steve

Re: "Face it. Gore should have won the election, as the exit polling had previously indicated. Lots of people did not successfully vote for who they intended, and now we have a major constitutional problem on our hands" Scumbria, why is it that you think the only voter problem that should be rectified is the one where your canidate suffered? What about all the other close races around the country? What about the premature network call that Gore had won Florida? That could have easily affected the Florida panhandle as well as many other locations in the west. How do we rectify those problems? You are concentrating on one specific problem in one specific location because it's your ox that is getting gored (no pun intended). If we are going to go to court for every voting irregularity, every stupid voter who can't read or follow an arrow, why not Iowa, New Mexico, Michigan, yada yada yada.... How do we make a perfect world? EP
