1. Basicly he will drag his feet until after the electoral college meets
Edited on Sun Nov-21-04 01:08 PM by Gman
and GOP electors "cast" their votes. (I put "cast" in quotes because the college rarely meets.)

The end game now will be to run out the clock for the electoral college just as they did in 2000. You may recall in 2000 the GOP created an artificial deadline for the finalizing of the FL results due to the electoral college having to "meet". They are doing the same thing now in OH. They haven't used this argument yet, but rest assured it's securely in their back pocket and they will pull it out and use it shortly.
