<If Gore doesn't win the finally tally in Florida, there are going to be major problems ahead. > Only for people who believe it is acceptable to change the law, after the fact. I hope you are not one of them. Society can't function that way. Nor should it. BYW, one of Bush's campaign platforms was strict construction of the law, what ever it is. That is good for Gore, should he win, That is good for Bush, That is good for Microsoft and Intel, and it is good enough for me. You want to change the law, do so in the proper manner, prospectively, not by intimation of "major problems". I realize I am being simplistic, there are laws that may be unfair, but this is not one of those cases.

Why should he have won the electoral vote? the popular vote is not a factor in deciding who's president so it should not be emphasized so much. Gore lost, and now he wants to recount until he's happy, and Bush doesn't want him to do that cause it's wrong. Gore should concede and cease whining. The major problems you speak of apply to Gore just as much as they apply to Bush. The final conclusion: Bush won the first time, the recount, and that's enough. What else is there? Revote when everyone knows that Florida decides the election? That's out of the question. Revote because 10000 people didn't know how to read a ballot and didn't bother to ask someone for clarification? These people shouldn't be voting anyway, and the electoral college was created because of distrust of the public... after 200 years, it's still valid. Gore lost, and now he wants to use his 75 lawyers to win. GORE=LOSER Paul
