OT David, Washington Post reported today that over 2 million ballots were thrown out across the nation. We don't even know if Gore won the popular vote as he claims. All those calling to abolish the Electoral College should take note of that. My contention remains, if you re-count the whole state of Florida Bush still wins. By counting only a few Democratic counties, of course Gore has a chance to win. I know, I know, Bush had a chance to do the same and how big of a mess would that have been? That, IMO, is why the Republicans didn't request it. The system is imperfect, but in all likelihood, would have the same result if all ballots could be counted. Where do we go from here?

Ah...err...ah David, Are you avoiding the "Ah...err....umm" issue? Do these "ahs" get recorded on the official record? I know you know the answer to this David....come on....do we count them or not? This is important for the children....who are getting one heck of a civics lesson. The next lesson will be the difference between a democracy and a republic. I love it......"the will of the people's representatives" bg ps. I will pay my son to record the total number of "ahs" on Saturday...(I still have $20 left in my portfolio)...I predict that the count will be over 300.....over 500 if he is as long-winded as yesterday. <g>
