Depends on what you mean by "fight this to the end". Do you think that Bush should ask for another election in Milwaukee since the Dems were caught bribing homeless people with cigarettes?; how about in St. Louis where the polls were kept open?; how about the panhandle of Fla?; how about military personnel that didn't recieve their absentee ballots?; how about joe blow in Peoria that says he was confused by his ballot? Recounts in OR, WI, NM, MI, PA?

I honestly do not think any of the so-called irregularities in Palm Beach County come close to warranting anything but a simple tallying of the results.

I do agree with your "shoe on the other foot" observation. No doubt about that.

TG,

Let me tell you this...each candidate should fight this to the end.

I guess it depends on your definition of fighting to the end. Does it mean challenging every one of the 6 million ballots in court?

I hope this can be settled with the count, re-count, double count, hand count, but without courts.

Joe
