Both the Bilderberg and the pro-Israeli lobbies have scrambled to have a stranglehold on the oncoming Bush administration.... So, as it became clear on election-day evening that Bush was gonna bag Florida in a breeze, both lobbies moved in: they started their cold-call campaign with their media-network puppets first --whence the premature call for a Gore victory in Florida while the counting rate was barely 4%. The networks' second blunder when announcing a Bush win in Florida merely was a lousy make-believe to cast them as upright, unbiased media. Thereafter, it was not that difficult for them to push it a little farther with a cornered Gore who's thenceforth got nothing else to lose anyway.... At that point, the Vice President's cast of mind neatly fitted the lobbies' need to spoil a Republican win: VP Gore was, after all, part of the White House furniture for the past eight years; couple that with his apparent psycho-rigidity and you get a classic bad loser who won't flinch at wrecking his opponent's success. Here're a few more clues: Message 14872867 Anyway, I expect the election snafu will come to settle tomorrow afternoon --after Secr. of State K. Harris officially certifies the Florida Re-/Mis-/Dis-Count (delete where inapplicable). My bet is for Al Gore's curtain statement to be aired half-an-hour after Harris's. Of course, Gore's lawyers will keep on bragging and bluffing up to the last minute because it's not up to them --but to Gore and Lieberman-- to throw in the towel.... Gus.
