Which they failed to do,resulting in Katherine Harris following the law,algore bringing in David Boies,who was completely outclassed by a Superior Lawyer named James A. Baker the 3rd.The SCOTUS was correct.The fact that the SCoFLA. chose to make up their own interpretation of the law and extend the date and time of counting votes,while being publicly scolded by the SCOTUS,is frankly, really embarrassing.How they can live w/ themselves (and still go to work each day)is beyond me.The fact that a roomful of students had to listen to Shrillary spout her doctrine is also offensive to me.
