The story so far:

Jeb Bush (Florida Governor, and brother to "Dubya") has essentially
made it clear that he wanted the Florida Presidential race to go to his
brother "Dubya," even going so far as to promise that.

The election essentially winds up unbelievably close.

All manner of recounts and disputes over the said recounts ensue.

The Supreme Court is called to deal with the recount mess, what
with "Dubya" claiming that such are "improper" and "risks improper
intrgiues" and Al Gore defending such as necessary check on the
electoral process.

Florida Legislature expected to choose a fresh slate of 25 Presidential
electors, expected essentially to be patsies for the Bush cause.

Could it be that we're seeing a bizarre case of nepotistic familial
political intrigues rivalled only by Shakespeare's "Hamlet" and even
Gilbert and Sullivan operettas here?

If I were you, perhaps enquiry should be opened into whether Jeb Bush
may be Engaging in Acts of Moral Turpitude as may essentially render
him unfit to hold political office (cf. the Peruvian Congress recently
removing ex-President Fujimori on morals grounds rather than accept his
resignation).
