You can wonder all you want - except that we now know that no such result
would have ever happened..... the only recount that would have even
produced the slightest of Gore wins was a recount that both the Gore
campaign and the FLSC rejected. Indeed, it was the FLSC's rejection of
that exact recount that got the FLSC's-mandated recount ruled
unconstitutional by the USSC.
Yes Virginia, the *only* people in the Florida recount affair who made a
decision that would have produced a Gore victory were the five Republicans
on the USSC.
History is full of ironies.
