jonewad - please go back and read my original post on this subject : Message 14840190 My post addressed a very specific issue - that Gore's efforts to block the absentee military vote would be a death blow to his political career in 2004. It did not address any recount issue, punch card ballots, etc. So your response is just typical of the democrats who are attempting to deflect attention by spinning their response to some other subject. If you disagree with my assertion that this military vote blocking won't come back to hurt Gore politically in 2004, whetehr he wins or loses this year, please do so - but don't respond with an attempt to spin the issue to some other subject. Thanks BTW - For the record - I am a registered INDEPENDENT - and this year is the first since reagan I voted for a Republican president.

a recount in 4 democratic counties, controlled by a democratic commission to determine how the state should go? yup, sounds pretty prudent to me (and only shot gore has) but i think he just shot himself in the foot when his hacks worked so hard to kick out the military vote, he lost the pr war on that one, will probably make him unelectable in the future, both sides have their spin doctors out on this one, but a reasonable person would have to agree you have to recount all counties or no counties, it is almost statistically impossible for gore to win if all votes are treated equally, if he does pull out a win over just 4 county recounts, he will never be able to govern, all the votes have to be treated equally is the bottom line imo (and thats my unbiased opinion) i think harris holds the ace card, and we have a shot that the supreme court lets her win tomorrow , if not, this could throw us into recession, conservative strategy is to trade on short side, sell into rallies until we close over 3200 imo, only profitable trades ive been making have been quick trades,(1-3 days) not the time to buy and hold profit often (both ways)
