Nadine...precisely...I think both parties had preconceived notions as to how things were to turn out...the repubs trashed manual counts without standards and the Gore people believed they had the votes...EACH PARTY WOULD DO WHATEVER IT TOOK TO ARRIVE AT THEIR OBJECTIVE....classic politics...the election boards and courts, merely serving as puppets for the greater end...and if you for one minute believe the parties are acting in the interest of the American people....well, you know doc
