There is a just amazing interview coming on with Mac Stipanovich tonight with Gloria Borger on CNN tonight at 9 where Stipanovich very calmly boasts to along with Jeb Bush making sure that the recounts stop ASAP.
He declared that he was determined that short of the federal troops being sent in W take the state of Florida and be sworn in as President.
In a sense this is not even denied anymore: Maureen Dowd talks matter of factly of Jeb's hand in securing Florida for his brother in 2000.
"On election night, W. was steamed that his father seemed more upset by Jeb’s loss than excited by his oldest son’s win. Not only did W. shock his family by making it to the Oval Office before Jeb. In the tie election, Jeb had to be prodded into helping his brother snatch Florida away from Al Gore."

But Stipanvich's confessions remove any doubt. The 2000 election result was rigged. He justifies his actions by claiming that if they didn't shutdown the recount, the Democrats would cheat in the recount.
As it happens, the subsequent studies of America's most contested election since Sam Tilden in 1876 shows that the winner of the recount hinged on which methodology was used in recountingg

But even if we don't know for sure what would have happened, what did happen was the shocking rigging of an American election.
To say 'I know you are going to cheat so I will cheat first' is hardly exculpatory of Jeb and company's actions.
How does Jeb have the chutzpah to run for President when he had his own hand in rigging a previous Presidential election.
This is the second big revelation we've had in the last few days about the dirty tricks used to install George W. Bush in office.
We have the nasty way they smeared Dan Rather in 2004.

And now we get confirmation, that yes, the 2000 election was rigged.
In all seriousness shouldn't something be done about this? Or is this another Bill Cosby moment-statue of limitations? But I don't know that there should be any regarding a stolen American election.
The people involved at least should be liable-including Jeb.
And yes, Democrats, you certainly did bring a knife to a gun fight in that one.
