Well, today is due day and no baby yet. My thoughts on the election:

Gore's contest was bound for failure. No matter what's fair and unfair, rules are set beforehand and revised afterward for future events. You can't revise rules afterward on something that's already happened. If Gore's attempt to change the rules actually worked, I figure we should go ahead and take away the driver's licenses of folks who drank & drove in the 1970's and only got a $20 fine.

However, I'm glad Gore put up a fight. The voting system in this nation is obviously flawed. Gore's contest will make voting more precise in the future. If Gore would not have fought, there would probably be less of a push to spend money on better ways to hold elections. People need to focus on how to make things better in the future instead of dwelling on this election. Bush is president, end of story.
