Two counties in Florida, Miami-Dade

and Broward, have decided against a hand recount and the Gore campaign

is suing them, both of which are heavily Democratic, to force them to

do a hand recount. They will stop at nothing in order to win, including

suing their own people.

Secretary of State, Katherine

Harris, made her intentions known that she would uphold state law and

require county voter certification to be submitted by 5 p.m. Tuesday,

Nov. 14. This did not please the Democrats, so here comes all these derogatory

newspaper articles about Mrs. Harris in the Washington Post, New York

Times, USA Today, and all major television media in an effort to label

her partisan and incompetent. Yet nothing is said about Florida Attorney

General Bob Butterworth who just happens to have been Gore's state campaign

manager. What a hypocritical crock.

A world renowned Democrat said

earlier this century, "Those who cast the votes decide nothing! Those

who count the votes decide everything!" That might explain Gore's

replacement of three or four campaign managers until he settled on Bill

Daly, the son of ballot box stuffer extraordinaire, and former Chicago

mayor, Richard J. Daly.

The Democrat who uttered the

words listed above was none other than Joseph Stalin. For all you Palm

Beach voters, Stalin was the former President of Communist Russia, who

was known to have murdered over 20 million political opponents during

his reign of terror. At least Democrats in America only murder their opponent's

character but they are just as despicable.
