...That's pretty much what the Gore team, led by the rumpled and disarmingly lucid superlawyer David Boies, was asking for. Boies argued that the only discretion Secretary of State Katherine Harris really needs is to make sure her office can muster a final answer in time for Dec. 12. And since her duties are merely a "ministerial act" - a contention the Bush team later appeared to confirm - certainly the hand counts could go on until, say, December 9 or so without serious damage to the rights of the Florida electorate...

...spent their time rebutting Gore and explaining (and then explaining again) Bush's plan. This marked the campaign's first serious message derailment since last February, when Bush visited Bob Jones University while slugging it out with John McCain in the South Carolina primary. After a less than lucid detour into budget baselines, tax cuts and available surpluses during a stump speech in Des Moines, Iowa, on Monday, Bush brought the issue up again, unprompted, on his campaign plane the next day. "I've got to do a better job of making it clear," he said, launching into another muddled...
