<< Someone needs to tell the Bush side that apples ARE apples >>

I'm afraid that this isn't an easy request. The fact is, there is no solution to this problem that is fair to everyone. How can just stopping the count when one party is ahead be fair? It isn't totally fair, I'll agree. How can doing a hand count with democrats in charge and changes to the process taking place at every turn be fair? It isn't.

There is no easy solution and there is no totally fair solution. At this point I am observing from what was a mildly biased position (I lean towards voting republican), but is now a fairly biased position. Why? Because the corruption and spin I see on the democrats side is far more unethical than what is coming from the republicans.

"It has been repeatedly made clear that there is BOTH a Republican and a Democrat overseeing each team doing the recount"

Where have you been? Any ballot that is contested is given to the canvassing board which has the final say...and in all 3 of these Democratic counties the boards are made up of 2 out of 3 or 3 out of 3 Democrats...and you call that fair and impartial...give me a break. These counties were hand-picked by Gore for this very reason...
