simply unethical
Horsefeathers, they handcount the counties that were requested, no more, no less. If they aren't counting Bush's favorite county it is just more evidence that he is dumber than a post.

<< It's simply unethical to only hand-count precincts which dramatically favor one candidate over another. >>

A hand count of precincts heavily Republican might yield even more votes for Gore. After all, Florida is controlled by the Republicans and George's brother, Jeb; and George Bush was absolutely sure that he would take Florida.

I wonder what George and Jeb knew, that our democracy didn't know?
