DId you see Charlie Rose Friday night? An author was talking about how by most counting methods, Al Gore would have won in 2000. BUT, the method that the Gore campaign wanted to use would have resulted in a Bush victory. This means that if the courts went along with Gore, Bush would still have been president.

Moving back to Ukraine, this issue is very important. If the former Warsaw Pact nations, and CIS nations are to move forward and stabilize, they need to become democratic. This has huge implications for American security, as well global stability.
