Al Gore as a magician By Al Knight Denver Post Columnist Nov. 29, 2000 - For reasons not entirely clear, Vice President Al Gore has cast himself as a political version of the magician David Copperfield. He wants Americans to suspend judgment, to hold their breath and to await what is going to be one of the great tricks of all time: Al Gore is about to become - drum roll, please - the next president of the United States. denverpost.com

Excellent article! This was interesting: The initial Palm Beach County results look suspiciously as if the Bush vote has been suppressed. According to CNN, Rep. Bill McCollum, the unsuccessful Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, ran 207,000 votes behind George W. Bush in Florida. In fact, Mr. McCollum received more votes than Mr. Bush in only four of Florida's 67 counties (even running behind in his home county, Seminole). Three of those four were Republican counties, and the fourth was Palm Beach. A very conservative Republican, vilified as a House manager in the impeachment of Mr. Clinton, manages to run 1,600 votes ahead of Mr. Bush in a liberal and heavily Democratic county? Go figure.
