Wrong.  No matter how you spin it, you cannot impute high morals/ethics to
the Bush Campaign.  They were ahead and they intended to block any and all
recounts.  It is crystal clear from Baker's statement that they wanted the
machine counts to be final and for no manual recounts under any standard to
go forward.  Baker's claim that machines are more accurate than people is an
outright lie.
-------------
George W. Bush's campaign went to federal court in Florida on Saturday,
determined to block Democratic requests for hand recounts of votes of
portions of the state that holds the key to the 2000 presidential election.

Former Secretary of State James A. Baker III said the Republicans had acted
"to preserve the integrity and the consistency and the equality and
finality" of Tuesday's close vote between the Texas governor and Vice
President Al Gore.

Baker insisted that a manual recount would be more susceptible to error than
a machine tally.

"Machines are neither Republicans nor Democrats and therefore can be neither
consciously or unconsciously biased," he said.
