And, just when Al Gore had started sleeping regularly:
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia says the high court did not inject itself into the 2000 presidential election.
Speaking at the Time Warner Center last night, Scalia said: “The election was dragged into the courts by the Gore people. We did not go looking for trouble.”
But he said the court had to take the case.
“The issue was whether Florida’s Supreme Court or the United States Supreme Court [would decide the election.] What did you expect us to do? Turn the case down because it wasn’t important enough?”
It’s too bad that things didn’t work out like in Washington State, we know, even with the added felons voting, but couldn’t we just let this one go already? Bush won, and won, and won… period!
