One thing that was very clear from that rally is that you liberals have woke up a sleeping giant. Remember most of you depend on us going out to work and providing the tax base for you social workers and lawyers etc etc. There was a large crowd there and this economy will fear the wrath of these people not by violence but by their pocket books. Wired magazine noted that the vast majority of technical people range from conservative to libertarian. The vast majority of liberal voters depend on the conservatives to work like dogs and hand over their money to people who want to talk and feel good. Hollywood can kiss a good Xmas season goodbye in either case.

It is called "separation of powers" dude. Might want to read up on it a bit. The Secretary of State followed the law as written by the legislature. So the Supreme Court of Floriduh would not only be usurping the power of the Executive Branch, but also the Legislative Branch. They may well do it, but they do so at great risk, for then the Secretary of State could simply refuse to certify the results. This would bring the legislature into the fray, and it is controlled by republicans.

Wrong camel's breath, the Florida Supreme Court is going to take the easy way out and rule that Ms. Harris did not violate any Florida law so there is nothing they can do to overturn her decisions. Thereby putting the full blame for this fiasco on a Republican Secretary of State. They will, however, voice their strong disapproval of what she did but then they will say the law is the law and there is nothing they can do about it. Ms. Harris will become the sacrificial lamb.
