You know, I don't think that this is fair. I bet that if Bush was trailing by
those 300-odd votes and the Palm Beach ballots could sway things in his
direction, you'd hear the same cries from the Republicans.
I think that an interesting good in this whole election is that it has served
to jolt the general public into more of an understanding of the election
process, voting choices and responsibilities. I know that I've spent more
time at work this week explaining the Electoral College and other civic
subjects to my worker bees than the usual spiels on debits and credits.
If it takes this to shock people out of voting and political apathy and make
them more aware, that's great.
