Winsock,

YOU said the same thing I did, 2 days ago. You're a real enigma...do you have rapid mood swings?

You said..."If you allocate the questionable votes in an area that is 2 to 1 Democratic, the result of the election will change for sure. Better to redo the election and give Bush a chance."

I'm now beginning to wonder about Bush JR's tactics.

The Bush campaign could have requested a recount if it was not sitting on its narrow lead expecting that the absentee ballots would hold their lead while at the same time making righteous statements about how awful it would be to use the Courts.

But as soon as the R's figured out that an accurate recount in Palm Beach, a Democratic stronghold, might turn the count against Bush they raced to the Court to stop the Palm Beach manual recount. The R's don't want an accurate count if it means that Gore loses. They just want to win.

The notion of what is right and wrong just changes to match what is expedient. Very shoddy ethics but effective if you want to win at all costs.
