Bush has one chance and one chance only and I see that as slim now. He wins with absentee votes and Gore concedes.
The Republicans are a nice group of folks, they make nice Lawyers, Boy's Scout Leaders, Soccer Moms, Dentist and so on and so on.

The Democrats, same as above BUT, I'm telling you folks, if this goes to a street fight and that is where it is headed, Bush doesn't have a chance in HELL.

Like Stalin said - " It's not important who votes, it's important who counts the votes".

I am not saying that Bush get's shafted, and I am not bitching because in no way is this any more sanctified than a downgrade and a buyback by the Houses, read it any way you want, it's just that when it comes down to electing the Next President on a Pitch and Toss Street Fight - Republicans cannot win. They are out of their element. I've been there and done that.

YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE A POLITICAL STREET FIGHT AND THE WINNER IS GOING TO BE - GORE!

This is not a prediction - It is a Fact!

Voltaire - planning his investments with that in mind

Punch ballots have been made illegal in Massachusetts because they give incomplete results by not tabulating punches that are not fully through both sides of the ballot.

The poll you cite conveniently avoids the real issue of whether a hand count should be made, and where will it end.

Let's say the hand count gives Gore a slight edge. Then Bush will ask for a hand count in Republican counties, and back and forth.



This is precisely the point and the problem. In NM on the 7th there was a snowstorm in Repub districts. Do we now ask for a revote because of inclement weather? This is ridiculous.
