Just as we regretted no legal challenge because a corpse was elected in Missouri, I hope we do not regret just quietly backing off a stolen election in South Dakota.

well -- from what I've read about SD election law -- a recount request would most likely not have found enough "illegal" votes. But if they find evidence of wrongdoing, they can bring a legal challenge -- if they'd asked for a recount, this second option would be unavailable. I don't know what's being done there (remarkable how little "fuss' there has been in the press over that election ?) but did read that some Indians are signing affidavits saying they were paid $10 to vote Dem. -- the real problem in SD was the GREEDY Reps. who voted Dem. because they figured having 2 majority Senators would keep the pork flowing -- Plenty of blame to go around, eh ?

There will always be regrets, when right is set aside for expediency. Too bad Lott folds faster than a K mart lounge chair under pressure from Dims over important issues, but threatens resignation and plays hardball, when threatened with loss of prestige (loss of leadership.)
