florida would have been a nightmare if the SCOTUS had not acted

The nightmare would have moved to Washington by 12/16/01.

The Florida Supreme Court cannot and could not enjoin the Legislature from appointing a slate of electors.

It is long past time to have a fight over judicial bodies making political decisions. The Constitution provides a clear, explicit pathway to fill the office of President under circumstances such as this.

It was foolish not to use it.

the "stolen election" mantra would have been even worse had we taken this route. as it stands, at the time of the SCOTUS ruling for Bush, most americans thought that was the correct decision.
