Rush reported last week on your first item (Kerry's lead six attorneys are ready to fly anywhere to "hot spot states" at a moment's notice). And these attorneys, according to Rush, would use the Supreme Court-based reasoning that gave Bush the victory in Florida in that lone county recounts "disenfranchised" voters because not all Florida votes received the same privilege.
If ANY significant group of voters can be claimed on Election Day to having been "disenfranchised," then the already-written legal briefs will be filed. All these attorneys need to do is slap on the given court venue and away they go. There won't be the delays we saw in Florida. The courts would be involved from the get-go this time.
End Runs-R-us, say the Democrats. You think those Clinton court appointments don't pay dividends?
