Just got to take a look at what the markets did today. Craziest volatility I ever saw--such jigs and jags.

Wayne, the way it stands right now, nearly half of all Americans are going to think they got robbed, no matter which way it goes. And whoever wins will definitely be a one term President. However, I don't go as far as a story I read today, which stated that this mess sets up Hilary to run in 2004. I think she is just too unpopular in most of the country.

We already know that Palm Beach County (not to exclude other possible irregularities) is an extreme national (not just state) outlier. The results there already are not "fair" -- but one county should never be a problem. Alas, since both candidates are born one-termers, the margin is wire-thin and it _does_ matter. But to be really fair, we should admit the election was a tie. -mb PS - another good link elections.fas.harvard.edu
