Arrow The New Florida; Washington State

Four years ago, recounting Floridian ballots was all the rage.

Here in the great liberal State of Washington, our Govener race vote-count is the closest in this nations history.

Hard to believe, but a Republican (Dino Rossi) has edged-out the Dem contender (Haggared Witch . . .er. . Christine Gregoire ...French prnc, I believe).

The first vote-count had Rossi (R) leading by ~250 votes.

For the second recount, the Dem's pulled an Al Gore, and found another 200 votes for Haggared Witch (D) by counting "intended votes" . . ya know, where the little bubble isn't filled in, but there maybe was a slight pen-mark near the ( )Haggared Witch spot.

So now, Gregoire (D) want to have a Hand-Recount, of the uber-liberal counties, hoping to generate a different count, so that a statewide, (taxpayer paid) THIRD recount may give her a victory.

Am I the only one who thinks this Dem is out-of-line, demanding a hand recount?

Should there just be a second vote .. .a run-off election?

Regardless; Florida, you guys are now off the hook. The liberals of the State of Washington have just bumped you.
