"Does moving the ballots out of their counties take authority away from the County Canvassing Boards?"

No ... that was the essence and underpinning of Judge Sauls ruling. To overcome the Gore team assertion for a de novo review ... Judge Sauls had to give authority of review to some other body other than the courts which he did in his ruling by supporting the canvassing boards authority. I do not think most people realize what a BLOW Judge Sauls rendered when he made his decision on a finding of fact (term of art). The review standard to overturn such a finding is much more difficult than a finding on the law. I particularly liked the hand slapping he gave to the State's Attorney General. Keep ypur eyes on Seminal (sp?) County ... don't think it would hold on appeal, but one never can anticipate a Judge's ruling.

David, this "finding of fact verdict" from da judge has all buy pounded the last nail in the coffin for Gore's chances of becoming prez.

A double whopper of a rally - election honeymoon that should've come around Nov 7th better late than never and now the santa rally all wrapped up nice present for the Bulls. Bears back to hibernating for this short while.

And Mr. G sprinkles it nice this morning to top it off...

Best Regards, J.T.
