I know that this is an article of Faith for you Fool, but even if the Supreme Court ruled the other way, Bush still would have won the recount as the media has demonstrated. And even if the Gore had won that recount, the best that could happen would be that Florida would submit two slates of electors. In which case, Congress would have to choose... since the House would have chosen the Republican electors, and the Senate might have chosen the Democratic electors, in this case the tiebreaker would go to.... the Governor of Florida. Sorry, but Bush vs. Gore had exactly zero effect on the ultimate outcome of the election. Under the laws of Florida at the time of the voting, Bush won by 527 votes.
