re:Eric Alterman Eric assumes that Gore would have achieved more votes than Bush in a "fair" count. Since that has not happened yet in anywhere from 1 to 5 recounts the process must be painted as flawed, unfair, and Politically motivated. <<<For what could possibly be the harm to the nation in allowing a manual recount to proceed before the court heard arguments on Monday morning?>>>> Well boy-oh-boy, let no good deed go unpunished. The Supreme Court steps in and prevents a major embarassment to the Democrats from the result of Bush gaining more votes than Gore in the recount. Then gets condemmed for being Politically motivated by a completely neutral observer. Sig

Your MSNBC Journalist has learned nothing from this last 30 days; if he wants to count all the votes why not start by telling the truth; in your article below Alter says; George Bush lost the popular vote" . I ask this shill who won the popular vote? I'll also provide the answer since the author is discredited; The venerable None of the Above won the popular vote by a huge margin. We live in a time where the political establishment has lost all credibility with the body politic. 107 million, mostly white middle class citizens recused themselves from participation in the partisan scheme. The interest groups who voted, should be held accountable for the debt, the largess, and the burden of future irresponsibility by politicians they elect. Non voters numbers have remained a constant on the political landscape for the last 60 years. We have believed in the Public Trust, which the partisans have routinely violated. Your challenge is to recover some dignity, because you have forfieted your intellect to a side you think is winning, but has in fact proven, that it does not want to count all the votes. 51.4 % Say None of the Above.
