Re: "I don't know this for fact, but my reading of the court is that they prefer to dispense their (travesty of) justice quietly, when no one is watching"

That's my take too. Another thing is the time problem. Everyone was saying it was imperative to get the handcount started a few days ago and now there won't even be a hearing until Thursday. If they were going to give him a prayer of a chance they would have ordered the handcount to proceed, pending the outcome of the appeal. Stick a fork in it. This one's done.

I would rather have the FL SC do what is in fact their interpretation of the law rather than running scared of the US SC or world opinion.

US SC has asked them to provide more info on their previous judgement. I would be interested in their detailed report since that will be the precedent going forward unless overturned by US SC based on some constitutional issue which I would also be interested in.

I am more interested in the process.

Personally I dont care who wins since I am not in support of either candidate. And the argument that Bush is good for stock market doesnt hold water, IMHO, if you are LTB&H. Traders of course can work either way.
