Hmmm....that remains kind of a stretch..however the microscopic analysis of Floriduh's voting standards shows widespread petty fraud and cronyism which, to say..only occurred here would be exceedingly naive....the sum of all the fraud occurring in election districts all across our nation seemed to cancel each party out this time and remains un"punished" as it always will doc

You are a dreamer. A company, and i forgot the name, provided the call based on exit poll information to "The Media". "The Media" didn't really make the call, they just relayed it. Remember that the company who actually is making the call is not "the Media" and that this company's only fear is making a mistake. That's how they make their money and that's how they get their next job. They could care less who wins. The polling company makes these calls based on exit poll trends. They know what % of precincts have voted, which haven't and determine what the trend based on these and many other statistical factors. Remember again that this company lives in total fear of making a mistake. Their call was made because voter intent indicated that Gore would win Florida at that point. Even 30,000 votes would not have overcome Gore, based on voter intent Remember also that over 100,000 votes were not counted because of double-punching alone. You are flat-out wrong.
