Did anyone see how sedated Theresa LePore, Palm Beach County's Supervisor of Elections, appeared during the board meeting Sunday morning? She looked like a robotic zombie. I will always believe that she voted for the manual hand-recount of all ballots in the county out of the deep sense of guilt she feels because she designed the ballot her Democratic mentors claim cost Gore the election. The Democratic hammers probably pulled her aside before the vote and filled her head with things like, "okay, Theresa, you have severely f*cked over your own party here, but you now have a chance for redemption. You need to go out there and vote to recount every vote by hand in this county. Then, you need to make sure you give every ballot the most extreme benefit of the doubt in favor of Gore. No go out there Theresa, and don't f*ck up again!"

As far as Palm Beach Count Commissioner Carol Roberts goes... That woman appeared to be a psychotic, ranting, loose cannon. She reminds me of a recovering alcoholic who has been ridden hard and put up wet. I'll bet she smokes 5 packs of cigarettes a day. Her ultimate mistake was her partisan attitude to vote immediately, despite the voiced protests of fellow democrat, Palm Beach County Judge Charles Burton. He stated that he wanted to seek the legal advice and opinion of the state officials, but Roberts refused to even consider it.

Hopefully, the Republicans use the chaos that existed at that board meeting and during the recount to convince the judge tomorrow that partisan decisions are now affecting the outcome of this election.

If Palm Beach County gets a manual recount, I demand that every county in the nation be recounted. The vast majority of counties nationwide voted for Bush and this should prove beneficial to Republicans.

Gore will win the popular vote because California absentee ballots should favor him or at least be a tie. Still as always anything could happen. Stay tuned.
