re: No one said the process was "perfect" since it is run by humans, it is not. But it is the system we got and the rules are clear.

The rules are clear??????

From what I see, every one of Florida's 60-some counties decided, independently, what votes to count, and what not to count. Each separate layer of the Judiciary interprets the laws differently (based mainly on who appointed them), and 7 judges split 4-3 on what will probably be the most important decision in their careers, with the Chief Justice issuing a blistering rebuttal of his own colleagues. In addition, the vote counters in some counties have changed their minds about the definition of a valid vote, from one day to the next, repeatedly. They are making up the rules after the election. Everyone has an agenda, and no one is objective. It looks like there will be 2 sets of competing Electors sent to the Congress. Congress will do whatever they please. The only thing that could possibly cause more chaos, is if the House Of Representatives had split exactly down the middle, the way the Senate has. As it is, the slight Republican majority will give Bush the Presidency, and he will slightly govern the country.
