I am under the impression it gives them the discretion to count a machine-rejected vote, so long as the clear intent of the voter is apparent.

They don't have discretion to count votes where the intent is not clear. If someone held a gun to your head and showed you a dimpled vote and said "tell me the clear intent of the voter or I will shoot you", how confident would you be?

Hey Bosco! What's your take on the fact that the FLSC allowed a "partial" hand recount in allowing the 158 votes from Miami-Dade? That issue has been given very little press. That 20% "recount" also came from 90% democratic pricincts. The other 80% it is believed, is at worst 52-48% for Bush. Some put that percentage much higher.

There's something wrong with that.

Sabre!
