...gave moderates hope that they alone would hold the key to the President's legislative success. At times last week, it seemed there were more moderate groups meeting on Capitol Hill--the Wednesday Group, two Centrist Coalitions, assorted convocations of New Democrats--than there are bridge clubs in Palm Beach. Now all that has to be put on hold while the politicians wait to hear from the judges. "Until this is settled, nobody is going to be talking about any specific agenda," says an aide to a moderate Republican Senator. "This trumps any bill." The healing will have to wait...
...Hanks is back on a killer beach, and this time he's alone. The soldiers hitting the Normandy sands in "Saving Private Ryan" faced grim death, but it might come in the arms of a buddy. Chuck Noland, the FedEx manager stranded on a Pacific island after a plane crash, has no one to talk to, to bray at, as he did to his harried underlings at work - no one to shore up his resolve or share his desperation.

And let's not forget that the standards for recounting differed from county to county. Furthermore, Rehnquist et al. opined, any constitutional recount would require a drastic overhaul of existing standards - not to mention a time frame allowing for judicial review and legal challenges. Such "serious work" could...
