But isn't that the essence of it? The supremes (7) of them believed that the manual counts granted by the FLSC unfairly favored Gore.

This stalling is usually called a pocket veto. I have been wondering all along if that might not be the case on the US Supreme Courts ruling. They were placed in an absolute no win situation, split on a party line and with the Florida court making purely partisan rulings. I sure was glad to not be in their shoes.
