Please tell that to Mr. Bush. Tell him to stop going to court in order to block the efforts to determine who really did win. You're right, it essentially came out a tie. Thus, the need for a recount. Bush declined Gore's offer for a statewide recount. Instead, he chose to complain that Gore asked for a recount in four counties only. I guess it didn't matter that Florida law allowed Gore to do that, and that Bush had the same right to make similar requests.

Speaking of hand recounts in specific counties only, would you please inform me what's going on right now in New Mexico relative to a specific Repubican-dominated county? Thanks!

Yeah, that's the real rub of it all, isn't it?

Spin, rancor, partisanship, lawyers (ugh!) and everything else aside there is no real, fair answer out there for resolution.

What a huge, huge mess.
