That was a court decision on a recount. If that sort of thing doesn't occur, which isn't likely, it is just over. And honestly, in the case of a tie, in the Supreme Court, it defaults to the lower court's decision.

Not necessarily. Though Bush v Gore situation specifically wasn't precedent, you're right.

As awesome as that would be, I don't see the courts even entertaining the idea of challenging the electoral college.

They wouldn't unless there was some dubious stuff like what happened in Florida is 2000... And that just happened to occur in a state that was deciding the entire election. The case was actually called Bush v Gore, because Bush filed suit to end the recounts. He won. I really just don't see the same sort of thing ocurring with this election.

Some of us are capable of being both partisan and objective at the same time. Learn to separate desire from reality.

Is there really any doubt left that Clyder = Latrin?
