The Breathless One on the steps of the US Supreme Court

THE LOSER IS

The heat was on Tuesday night, and Fox News Channel's Rita Cosby got burned.

"This is an incredibly dramatic decision and obviously a big win for Vice President Al Gore," she reported breathlessly as the decision was released.

"There were a number of issues that were before the justices, primarily: Was this a federal issue? Did it violate the equal protection . . . Indeed, that they have decided to reverse the decision . . . From what we're hearing, that would be very positive for Vice President Al Gore."

While the ruling was confusing at first all over the dial, Cosby was the slowest to realize that the election was finally over.

Oh, God. I remember I was the last person in the family who was still up. Finally, finally, I heard Bush had won, so I started for bed. I heard that Gore would be making his concession speech momentarily. (Of course, we all know now Gore was getting a cell call while in his limo--and then there was the famous "snippy" phone conversation, but I digress.)

I put on a walkman which had a radio. I wanted to hear at least the beginning of Gore's concession, but I had to have the headphones b/c everyone else was asleep. I waited, and waited, and waited, and waited... finally gave up and fell asleep. I awoke to---well, you KNOW what I awoke to. I awoke to the beginning of WHAT WE WOULD HAVE SEEN FOUR OR EIGHT YEARS EARLIER, IF CLINTON HAD NOT WON OR STOLEN THOSE TWO EARLIER ELECTIONS.
