The number inbetween probably reflects a more accurate count. Probably?! Give me a break!! Greenspan is probably going to either raise or lower rates in five weeks. Burton's standard is appropriate. Do a statewide count using that standard, and only that standard. Bush wins, again for the 4th time... LoF

Party Time, There is a NY Times article on the court decision which quotes a Vanderbilt Law School Professor with extensive criticism of the majority. In the law schools all over the country, the various professors of constitutional law will be pointing out how these five judges departed from their usual judicial philosophy on federalism and states rights to create a decision based on political reasons. There is no other rational basis because the decision is contrary to their past judicial philosophy. This will not escape the attention of constitutional law scholars. Expect to hear more about it.
