George W. Bush thought he would lose the limited recount ordered by Florida's Supreme Court, so the Republican presidential candidate got the U.S. Supreme Court to stop it.I didn't realize Chris had a direct line to Bush's mind.

"What Bush personally got was bragging rights..." No Chris, the media recount didn't give Bush bragging rights. Those rights, should he choose to use them, come from his 90% approval rating, which the media had nothing to do with. That rating is based on his own performance as President.
By the way, Chris, get a freakin' life. The election was over a long time ago. A lot has happened since then. Try to keep up, won't you?

In fact, you crack up when you mention dead people voting in Chicago. To low life Democrats such as yourself, voter fraud is funny. Others wouldn't mind the death penalty for engaging in it.

Among other gaping flaws in this column, I wish to challenge the premise that Bush was not playing it straight.
Bush's position throughout the failed attempt by Al Gore to steal the election was that the rule of law should be followed. It was Al Gore's attempts to change the law as it suited him which epitomized the larger struggle surrounding this particular battle.

"A ballot-by-ballot analysis by a consortium of newspapers shows that Bush would have won the election clean if he'd let Florida go ahead with the partial recount that Gore wanted."
Uh, Chris? I think your friend Al got his partial recount...like three times over if I'm not mistaken...and he still lost!

Here's the e-mail I sent to Matthews:
Al Gore cheated. Period.
That democrat spin that both sides were "playing cute games" is bull.
Since when is following the rules "playing cute"?
The Supreme Court stepped in because the Florida Supreme Court changed the law, which they did NOT have the right to do.
Furthermore, the latest re-re-re-re-re-recount proves only one thing: Hand recounts are unreliable. The FACT that every single hand recount has resulted in different numbers is proof positive of that.
One last thing, the ONLY scenario in which Gore's numbers are higher than President Bush's is if you count ILLEGAL overvotes AND EXCLUDE military ballots.
So your spin to try to make the democrats look justified in their year-long temper tantrum over losing the election falls flat.

Last week we discovered the irony in this game-playing. A ballot-by-ballot analysis by a consortium of newspapers shows that Bush would have won the election clean if he'd let Florida go ahead with the partial recount that Gore wanted.Not true, because the corrupt officials in charge of those recounts, notably Carol Roberts in Palm Beach county, despite all the "controls" that were in place, would have found the votes to put Gore over the top. Gore chose those counties precisely because he knew he could depend on the officials in chare to find votes he needed.

If Chris along with a lot of other people would have read the constitution they would have discovered that the Florida Supreme Court was completely out of line by setting policy.

Had Bush not gotten the U.S. Supreme Court to stop the limited recounts ordered by Florida's high court, he might have won the election by anywhere from 225 to 495 votes. Even diehard Democrats would have been forced to concede his victoryOf COURSE they would hvae, sure Chris...will Matthews now concede GWB's victory???

Chrissy, Chrissy, Chrissy, will you shut up! your commentaries don't mean anything.
GW Bush *is* our President, was, since right after the election, and will be for another 3 hopefully 7 years. Nothing you and your fellow libs can do to change that. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

George Bush fought the recount because he thought he would lose? Maybe he fought it because, as the Supreme Court determined, in accordance with well established Constitutional Law and the laws of the State of Florida, the recount was illegal.
Who can doubt that if Gore had won, Bush would have graciously conceded, with the same graciousness and decency he has invariably shown since his election? Some Yuppies just can't stand to lose, because they think they are Entitled.

ABC, NBC, CNN, CBS, and FOX gave the election to Bush.
When the networks called the race early in Florida, the democrats quit double punching ballots.
Democrats didn't invalidate enough Bush votes to steal the election. The liberals did it to themselves...

The real loser of the 2000 presidential election was hardballShould've stopped there, the rest is more justification for the incessant Dimwit blather by none other than the host of "Hardball" and one of its stupidest practitioners- Ms. Chrissie Matthews"
The guy is so partisan and so stupid that only idiots can still bear to listento him, kind of like a McLame light.
