The Supreme Court just told the Florida Supreme court that they really shouldn't take a statute into account when making the decision, and that they should make the decision again. It's confusing, even the Gore team is confused on this one. Florida Supreme court shouldn't have relied on the state constitution...the statute supercedes something or other...sheesh. They just have to rewrite the same opinion wihtout refering to the statute they used originally.

Of course,..there's only 8 days left...and there are still some other legal cases dangling out there...It's good news for Bush, but it ain't over yet...

Stolen from someone at Free Republic who put it so eloquently:

""The USSC basically said... as a matter of professional courtesy we don't want to rule against you, although you're obviously very wrong in your thinking. Do yourself a favor and take it upon yourselves to reverse this so we don't have to publicly humiliate you. ""
