So you just take all and add them in. I believe that was the offer Gore made he other night, the one that Bush tried to sneer at but was too busy with the teleprompter to blink. TP

The Florida Supreme Court has only two options on Monday. 1. Declare G.W. Bush the winner based on the Nov. 14 certified votes plus the absentee ballots. 2. Order a statewide hand recount of all 6 million ballots. I think they will opt for number 1 because it's always easier to declare the current leader the winner. If they opt for number 2 they will have to come up with statewide standards as to what constitutes a valid ballot. As we have seen, that would be opening a big can of worms.
