I interpret this as: They are giving up on the "count every ballot" argument, because counting every legal ballot still shows GWB the winner.
Their thinking is pretty screwy. They want to divine the intent of the voter. Now, if the voter voted for Bush and also wrote in on the same ballot: "President Bush" that vote would be disqualified. (Obviously this voter is confusing Papa Bush with candidate Bush). If a voter voted for both Gore and Bush, that vote would be counted for Gore, because G comes after B, and they really meant to do G.
