The vote of the Electoral College for the 2000 election has already taken place.

All that would happen from such a move -- if such a thing were legal -- would be that four of Colorado's electors would instantly be branded faithless electors who voted for someone other than the person they were retroactively instructed to vote for (at a time four years into the future).

Not only would it be laughed out of every court, but it wouldn't make it onto any docket before Jan 21 when Bush takes office again.

Or do they think that every document Bush signed would suddenly cease to be law?

I hadn't thought of that. That's brilliant!
