My Friends,
NewsMax.com had this story today. Could it be that after all the LIES and SCHEMES of the Gore camp have failed in Florida, that Gore will win the Electoral Vote?

Maybe Gore Didn't Lie: Beckel Seeking
Bush Electors to Abstain
When Al Gore said he had no intention of seeking the support of any Bush elector in the Electoral College, he may have been telling the truth.
This morning, Democratic operative Bob Beckel appeared on CBS's "The Early Show" and gave some deeper meaning to Gore's statement last week.
Beckel admits that he has been seeking out Republican electors.
Beckel told CBS he is not asking Republican electors to switch their votes from Bush to Gore. He is simply asking them to "abstain" from voting in the Electoral College.
Bingo!
Gore can appear to not be asking electors to switch, and Beckel can do his bidding.
With President-elect Bush leading 271 to Gore's 267, Beckel would need to convince no more than five Bush electors to abstain to give the election to Gore.
That may be much more difficult than getting three Bush electors to switch their votes to Gore, which would give Gore the 270 needed to steal the election."
