Kerry working behind the scenes?
Something is up. Something is going on with Ohio and Florida.

I will place any money right now that someone is going to come forward on voter fraud from one of these states.

3. Don't count on it. I don't expect anything from the party
or the candidates. It's up to the grassroots.

4. Any Indication?
Or just a gut feeling? I want to believe, but I'm having such a hard time doing that right now... Btw, has anyone heard of any actual confirmation that the absentee / early votes are being counted in OH & FL? There has been NO press on this at all, and I can't post my own thread yet.

5. A concession has no legally binding effect...Presidential Election Laws...
A concession has no legally binding effect. Presumably a concession by Gore would be accompanied by a request that his allies cease litigation efforts on his behalf and everything gets dismissed as moot. Still, until the electoral college votes, Congress opens and accepts, and the hand goes on the bible, anything can theoretically happen. However, the scenario we experienced with the retracted concession, like most everything else of the past month, is very, very unusual and was attributable to the erroneous media reports that we all were relying on. So if there is another concession, it will be for keeps.

ticket, and Elizabeth too (bless her with her health issues).

I just do not see them really slinking away this easily, do you? The silence from the ACLU, Sharpton, Jackson, etc is DEAFENING.

Something is going on.
