So Scott, I assume you disapprove of the GOP going to court to Maine to change the results reached by the elections officials? ap.tbo.com BTW, was Bush or Gore the first one to file a lawsuit in 2000, who spent the most money on the recount, and how many lawyers did Bush have working for him? I'm going out for a walk in these rare Santa Ana winds. Look forward to your response.

The DeLay brown shirts broke up the recounts, and the Scalia putsch made sure that no other recount could be started before Junior was enthroned. Gore won and the country lost. TP

I cannot believe people still talk about this. Several newspapers, among them the Miami Herald and Orlando paper conducted a recount on their own long after Bush was President. Guess what---Bush won by even a larger number of votes then before. LIke you said GORE tried to steal the election with attorneys. He lost, God smiled on the USA. JDN

Hey, gore has won... a 2 to 1 unfavorable rating... us.news2.yimg.com LOL At the same time, nearly half of the respondents expressed an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party the highest percentage with such a view since 1996. Americans said Democrats had failed to offer a plan for the future or a reason to vote against Republicans in this latest campaign, suggesting that the election's outcome was as much a testament to what Democrats did wrong as to what Republicans did right. In a measure of additional concern for Democrats, Al Gore, who is the best-known Democrat who might run for president in 2004, is viewed unfavorably today by a ratio of almost two to one, despite a weeklong bath of favorable publicity that accompanied his national tour promoting two new books about the American family. Nearly two-thirds of all respondents, including just over 50 percent of Democrats, said that Mr. Gore should step aside and allow someone else to run against Mr. Bush. The poll's finding strongly suggests that Mr. Bush's popularity he has a 65 percent job approval rating and heavy schedule of campaign appearances contributed to the strong Republican showing on Election Day. Among those who voted Republican, 55 percent described their vote as being cast in support of Mr. Bush; nytimes.com
