So how many Ohio judges are there that are going to rule that Kerry is President and toss the incumbent wartime President who won the (supremely-important) popular vote out of office?

This isn't popular vote winning challenger Al Gore versus electoral winning challenger George Bush. This is challenger John Kerry versus incumbent wartime popular vote and electoral vote winning George Bush. If they are stupid enough to just play games on this one and really have nothing....it could blow back bigtime on them. Biiiiiiig time.

It is going to blow back big time on the Rats.... They will keep on losing more elections with this attitude.

Even IF they could find some way-out-there wacko left wing judge to throw out the results, it wouldn't be binding. The Congress probably could just ignore it. Ever since the EC met and cast their votes and it has been signed, sealed and delivered to D.C., only Congress now has the power to accept or reject the EV. The only recourse now for the dems would be the small possibility that a judge orders that a new slate of electors be sent up to Congress for Kerry, and even then, he loses. The Congress would reject theoretical Kerry OH EVs and accept the Bush ones as long as the "proof" is illogical and partisan.

Exactly so. They're making the error of thinking (or rather, wanting to think) this is 2000. The dynamics are completely different, and in Bush's favor--he's the incumbent, he won the popular vote many times more than Gore did, his margin in OH, while narrow, is sizable, and we are at war. Stupid dems.

Stuff like this I no longer find amusing. It's just tiresome to me now.
