Interestingly, CFR has no impact on the Louisiana runoff. I knew the CFR law had an effective date of 6 November. But I don't have and hadn't read, the entire text.

An alert FReeper pointed out to me that the "effective date" clause which exempts from CFR any "runoff of an election conducted before that date [6 November]." So the old rules still apply to this one, last, election.

The old rules would also apply, logically, to the aftermath of other elections, including raising money for the examinations of fraud, legal fees, etc., in South Dakota, since that is all part of "an election conducted before 6 November."

I got an email from the NRSC soliticing donations specifically for this campaign. The GOP is going after it, so we best help it. Send donations directly to the candidate or to the NRSC. I wonder if the NRSC can support activities regarding the fraud in SD.

Thank you for all the excellent work that you do.

Any insight on the South Dakota Fiasco. If Terrel and Thune get us to 53, a filibuster proof 60 may be possible in 2004. Bush will head the ticket, more incumbent Democrat Senators then Republicans will be up for grabs, and the Democrats are tacking hard to the left. I also think some important states like Texas captured their state legislatures allowing more elimination of Democratic representatives through gerrymandering.

I don't want to start prematurely celebrating, but I think our Republic has been granted another chance.
