The suits are in the court before the certifiying deadline. They then have all the authority in the world. To not let the certification process complete itself tomorrow certainly is not good for the Bush camp. And I do believe Miss Secretary of State will wish she has not done what she has so far. She in her statements has not given a case by case reason for rejection. It certainly will cost her the office she holds in the next election, or any other public office she might run for. It's called contempt of court not to comply.

(That's it.)
Hmmm. That would seem to be a violation of separation of powers. Since when did the Florida Supreme Court have executive authority?
