This is going to be the Presidental election from Hell. Al Bore started a dangerous precedent when he fought the election that he lost. Never again will we have a simple election. They will always be fought out in court.

And it's very chilling. Look at all of the outrageous decisions a lot of courts (UNelected judges) hand down on a regular basis.

Courts will not withstand the weight of it. In 60 BC, rival Roman politicians were still bribing the voters. The conservatives (e.g. Cato) had joined in, thinking it was the only way to fight back. By 56 BC leading pols negotiated outcomes themselves and used force against those they did not favor. By 43 BC, after years of civil war, leading pols openly published lists of thousands of rivals they wanted killed and rewarded those who did so with cash and public offices. The only stable alternative to deciding who rules by votes is deciding who rules by force. Men who won't obey laws about voting won't defer to judges, either.

Yep, I expect our presidential elections to resemble Haiti's more and more from now on. Thanks Al!
