We still remember the Florida fiasco and how the US Supreme Court
over-stepped its bounds.  A lot of people are still angry about that.
That's why I said that issue (if the House did its job) "would" still have
been fresh in voter memories.  Voters still remember the US Supreme Court
stepping in, although they can't do much about the US Supreme Court.  Maybe
the issue isn't fresh in voter memories, but there is that haunting
resentment that will be an influence when voters decide at the polling
booths.
