00:01:31	Those are absolutely meaningless.
00:01:33	Who's looking at the polls? I haven't
00:01:36	I'm telling you, it's looking good,
00:01:38	but we've got to keep hammering
00:01:40	Between phone calls I'm praying.
00:01:42	We need to satellite Lieberman
00:01:44	We can have it set up by 11:00
00:01:46	He's walking in right now. Hold on.
00:01:48	Fournier is waiting for you on line two.
00:01:53	Yeah, Fournier, what can I do for you?
00:01:55	Looks like voter turnout's gonna be
00:01:57	As I keep saying
00:01:59	the foundation of a democracy
00:02:03	A.B.C. on three... winning electoral,
00:02:05	- Hang on a sec. Yes.
00:02:08	show that Gore will lose the popular
00:02:11	What would the Gore response be
00:02:13	The Gore response would be
00:02:15	is gonna have to respect the electoral
00:02:18	Fournier,
00:02:20	is based upon
00:02:22	It is our duty as Americans
00:02:25	- C.N.N. on one... the same.
00:02:28	Looks like you're gonna lose
00:02:30	I know the question.
00:02:32	Governor Bush is gonna have
00:02:35	no matter what the outcome. Fournier...
00:02:37	"It is our duty as Americans
00:02:41	"because we must never forget
00:02:45	You're the only liaison I know
00:02:47	when you spew that shit.
00:02:49	- Background?
00:02:51	Are you going to join
00:02:53	That would depend
00:02:55	but I don't think so{\he's going
00:02:57	He's barely spoken to me
00:02:59	- But if he does?
00:03:02	- Talk to you later.
00:03:06	I have a Lester Hyman on two.
00:03:13	Hey Lester,
00:03:16	If the 32nd precinct opens
00:03:19	I will fly down there with a crowbar
00:03:24	Whouley?
00:03:26	Ron, you look like a fuckin' bolshevik.
00:03:28	I just got off the phone
00:03:30	We may have a problem
00:03:32	A bunch of older voters think
00:03:35	for Pat Buchanan by mistake...
00:03:39	- Jeremy... Where is it again?
00:03:41	Get me what's-her-name,
00:03:44	We wouldn't be having this problem
00:03:47	But since you're not, how about
00:03:51	- But before I do that...
00:03:55	- Are we going to win this thing?
00:03:59	Yes, but it's gonna be a squeaker.
00:04:03	You always said
00:04:05	Yes, I did. Jeremy, Theresa Lepore.
00:04:08	- It's busy. I'm trying.
00:04:12	- Thanks, man.
00:04:16	- Hey, Morehouse.
00:04:18	What happened to your leg?
00:04:19	Twisted my knee
00:04:22	Did they upgrade you
00:04:24	Put some ice on it.
00:04:30	Hey, Ron.
00:04:32	Hold on a sec.
00:04:34	Ron Klain.
00:04:36	- I'm sorry about this.
00:04:45	- Thanks.
00:04:48	- Complete this part right here.
00:04:50	I'll get it to the Vice President
00:04:52	Good.
00:04:54	Okay.
00:04:56	Look, Ron, I don't want to bullshit you,
00:05:00	Roy Neel is putting out feelers
00:05:03	he told me al really wants you onboard.
00:05:06	The Vice President
00:05:08	in reviewing candidates
00:05:15	Bill, that's the same job
00:05:18	I know it's not ideal,
00:05:20	but Al really wants you to do this.
00:05:21	And I don't think he's going
00:05:25	Maybe it has something to do
00:05:27	that he didn't exactly back me when
00:05:31	We all know Coelho was a big mistake.
00:05:34	Right, working under the people
00:05:37	Everyone appreciates you coming back.
00:05:40	It's the first thing I did
00:05:42	And I did it because I hate
00:05:45	But this is a good opportunity
00:05:50	Tell the Vice President
00:05:52	to write press releases for the last
00:05:56	but I will not be able to accept his
00:06:03	Ron, would...
00:06:05	Would you think about it?
00:06:07	I'll keep you up to date on exit polls.
00:06:10	The Vice President and his wife
00:06:12	at Forks River Elementary in Elmwood.
00:06:17	Chris called earlier.
00:06:18	He said if Gore wins,
00:06:21	If he loses, he wants you
00:06:26	They don't call Warren Christopher
00:06:29	So I take it you're not gonna be
00:06:37	I understand
00:06:39	but I haven't heard anything about that.
00:06:41	The Governor promised
00:06:43	and that's why the Governor
00:06:46	And he always keeps his promises.
00:06:49	I'm finally in the Governor's mansion,
00:06:52	Now we're all seated at dinner
00:06:55	and everybody bows their heads
00:06:59	And I am sitting there thinking
00:07:01	"What's a nice jewish boy
00:07:04	"praying with the Governor of Texas?"
00:07:06	And the Governor leans over
00:07:10	"It's about time we got
00:07:14	And I got relaxed very very quickly.
00:07:17	It was a lovely lovely moment.
00:07:20	Are we gonna win, Mr. Ginsberg?
00:07:23	By tomorrow morning
00:07:25	the stains of Bill Clinton
00:07:29	and honor and dignity will finally
00:07:37	Hey, Ben,
00:07:44	Revote! The ballot is unfair!
00:07:47	It should be clearer
00:07:49	I understand.
00:07:51	Revote!
00:08:05	Is this what all the fuss is about?
00:08:07	Judge Burton, I've had three friends
00:08:10	because they think they voted
00:08:12	They're very upset.
00:08:14	Theresa, why did you list the candidates
00:08:19	The font that I had to use
00:08:20	to get all the candidates
00:08:23	and I was worried that the older voters
00:08:41	We're going to need a lawyer.
00:08:45	The presidential race
00:08:48	This promises to be one of the closest
00:08:52	The big prize, the brass ring
00:08:57	A big call to make... CNN announces
00:09:00	that we call Florida
00:09:03	Al Gore wins the state of Florida.
00:09:05	Florida was supposed
00:09:08	And you can bet that Governor Bush
00:09:12	that his brother, the Governor,
00:09:16	Stand by. Stand by.
00:09:17	What the networks giveth,
00:09:20	NBC news is now taking
00:09:23	Florida out of Vice President Gore's
00:09:26	Waiter, one order of crow, please.
00:09:30	Call the doctor, call the police,
00:09:32	In Florida, it's tightened up.
00:09:34	All eyes on Florida at this hour.
00:09:37	- This is the answer Florida.
00:09:41	Whoever wins Florida won this election.
00:09:43	I apologize.
00:09:46	ABC news is now going to project
00:09:47	that Florida goes to Mr. Bush
00:09:50	Bush wins.
00:09:54	That's it. Sip it, savor it...
00:09:56	Unless there is a terrible calamity...
00:09:58	...cup it, photostat it,
00:10:01	...George W. Bush by our projection
00:10:04	...press it in a book,
00:10:07	- The 43rd president...
00:10:10	The 43rd President of the United States.
00:10:13	At 18 minutes past 2:00 eastern time,
00:10:16	CNN declares that George Walker Bush
00:10:19	has won Florida's 25 electoral votes
00:10:22	and this should put him over the top.
00:10:27	Ladies and gentlemen, listen up!
00:10:30	Al Gore has just called the Governor
00:10:34	and conceded!
00:10:40	You did a great job.
00:10:41	All of you, great job.
00:10:45	Area clear.
00:11:00	Are you okay?
00:11:02	We've learned that the Vice President
00:11:05	to deliver his concession speech
00:11:07	at the War Memorial Plaza
00:11:16	Can't say enough about
00:11:18	...but let no person say
00:11:20	that Al Gore did not
00:11:24	- Ron Klain.
00:11:26	I've got no comment at this time, Ron.
00:11:28	Why did Gore concede?
00:11:30	Hang on a second.
00:11:33	Why did Gore concede?
00:12:02	Jeremy, get Nick Baldick.
00:12:05	Hurry up.
00:12:07	Ron, The Associated Press
00:12:11	What?
00:12:13	Gore conceded. He's on his way
00:12:15	All I'm saying is the oldest
00:12:18	has not yet called this election.
00:12:21	too close to call. I don't understand
00:12:24	- What is it?
00:12:28	You have reached Bill Daley.
00:12:31	Damn it.
00:12:36	- Ron Klain.
00:12:38	the networks have the wrong numbers.
00:12:40	I just got off with Baldick...
00:12:43	Get this... it actually added
00:12:47	and subtracted thousands
00:12:50	Gore's count right now
00:12:54	- So what are the real numbers?
00:12:58	the entire state,
00:13:01	- So it's a machine recount.
00:13:04	Wait, no. Gore conceded to Bush.
00:13:07	- You're fuckin' kiddin' me
00:13:09	The networks all called it.
00:13:11	Jesus. Hang on.
00:13:14	Guys, what's happening?
00:13:16	...two senior Gore campaign officials
00:13:18	that the Vice President placed
00:13:22	The Vice President
00:13:23	due here in Downtown Nashville
00:13:25	in just a few minutes
00:13:27	Jesus Christ.
00:13:29	- Get me Bill Daley.
00:13:31	I've been trying.
00:13:33	- What the hell is going on here?
00:13:35	You can reach him through
00:13:38	Yeah.
00:13:40	No word from the Gore campaign yet.
00:13:45	Fuck.
00:13:54	- Damn it.
00:13:57	Good idea.
00:14:01	The networks got it wrong
00:14:04	- We're going to a machine recount.
00:14:06	before he goes on stage. Whatever
00:14:09	- Who's gonna grab him?
00:14:13	Get me David Morehouse.
00:14:14	We will hear from the Vice President,
00:14:22	- Morehouse here.
00:14:24	You gotta stop him at the car.
00:14:26	Vice President Al Gore's motorcade
00:14:29	Mr. Gore will likely make
00:14:31	We want Gore!
00:14:33	We want Gore!
00:14:50	No, Mr. Vice President,
00:14:52	Mr. Vice President.
00:14:54	Sir, Mr. Vice president.
00:15:02	Hold on a second. Hold it, pal.
00:15:04	We know the Vice President is backstage.
00:15:07	of his senior aides
00:15:09	We've been unsuccessful in doing so...
00:15:12	My people aren't seeing
00:15:16	Neither is Karl.
00:15:20	We want Gore!
00:15:26	Mr. Vice President.
00:15:27	Mr Vice President.
00:15:29	- Sir, sir. It's urgent.
00:15:32	Daley needs to speak to you.
00:15:35	I just spoke to Bush.
00:15:38	- I'm not going to keep him waiting.
00:15:41	there's a problem
00:15:44	...the populare that looks like
00:15:47	Governor, Al Gore is on the phone.
00:15:51	Let me make sure I understand.
00:15:54	You are calling back
00:15:57	Excuse me, but you don't have
00:16:01	My little brother has assured me
00:16:04	Well, your little brother
00:16:08	Mr. Vice President,
00:16:14	Yes!
00:16:19	The Vice President
00:16:21	and retracted his concession.
00:16:23	This thing will be over
00:16:26	- Honey...
00:16:28	Be careful down there.
00:16:32	I'll see you friday.
00:16:34	...has called Governor Bush
00:16:38	What are these people yelling?
00:16:42	Recount!
00:16:43	"Recount."
00:17:03	Secretary of State
00:17:06	What the hell is going on, Katherine?
00:17:10	This is the Secretary of State
00:17:12	You'll have to call Clay Roberts,
00:17:14	Katherine, it's Jeb!
00:17:18	Who won Florida?
00:17:20	There she is!
00:17:37	We'll have a statement later.
00:17:40	Bush received 2,909,135 votes.
00:17:46	Gore received 2,907,351 votes.
00:17:53	- What's the difference, Clay?
00:18:03	Bush takes Florida by 1,784 votes.
00:18:07	Or .03%.
00:18:10	Any difference of less than .5 of 1%
00:18:13	triggers a mandatory machine recount.
00:18:19	Thank you Clay.
00:18:27	We will now proceed
00:18:31	All that was needed was 30,000
00:18:35	We're only behind by 1,784.
00:18:39	They're going to run every ballot
00:18:42	The machines are not precise.
00:18:44	You'll get a slightly different total
00:18:48	It's even possible we might pull ahead
00:18:50	But if Bush maintains his lead,
00:18:52	I'm sure they're gonna want
00:18:54	and Katherine Harris
00:18:56	a Bush victory right at the deadline,
00:19:00	Of course she will,
00:19:03	She would have certified
00:19:05	Anybody here ever heard of a "chad"?
00:19:11	One by one, each of
00:19:15	through the counting machines
00:19:17	This process is overseen
00:19:20	made up of county and local officials.
00:19:22	- All final tallies must be submitted...
00:19:25	Are you watching? Daley's on Channel 6.
00:19:30	Mr. Daley, what makes you think
00:19:32	will be any different than they are now?
00:19:35	Well, at this point
00:19:38	whether it will be different or not.
00:19:40	His daddy stole it for J.F.K.,
00:19:44	I've asked Warren Christopher,
00:19:46	to come in and oversee
00:19:48	Okay, they got Warren Christopher...
00:19:50	Secretary of State Warren Christopher
00:19:53	Who were we thinking?
00:19:57	It's gonna be a litigation nightmare.
00:20:01	is gonna be waving their briefcases
00:20:05	I'm tellin' ya,
00:20:08	Can you get back to the airport?
00:20:10	I can be there in an hour.
00:20:15	Hundreds of voters are lined up
00:20:18	to sign affidavits stating that
00:20:22	A petition is being circulated
00:20:25	These voters believed they mistakenly
00:20:29	I want my vote to count.
00:20:30	We're gonna do everything we can
00:20:33	That's why we're here.
00:20:35	I feel like I'm stuck in
00:20:38	Just stay calm. And whatever you do,
00:20:42	Yeah, I promise.
00:20:43	Hey, Buchanan's on TV.
00:20:45	...I think and believe.
00:20:47	And it is my belief that some
00:20:50	probably were cast for me
00:20:53	that people were casting
00:20:57	Glen, new talking point...
00:21:00	Even he says he thinks people voted for
00:21:03	Write it up. Get it to me as an email.
00:21:05	Reverend Jesse Jackson
00:21:07	and unhappy voters
00:21:11	At this point we do not know
00:21:14	who won the election
00:21:16	because our votes have not been counted.
00:21:19	Right.
00:21:29	It's insane.
00:21:32	Now all eyes on Florida watching this
00:21:36	expected in the state
00:21:39	we should note,
00:21:41	as to whether the Gore campaign
00:22:06	The undervotes and the overvotes
00:22:13	Good afternoon, Mr. Secretary.
00:22:18	This is everyone...
00:22:22	Tell Austin I want operatives, P.R.
00:22:24	- and volunteers down here immediately.
00:22:28	They have Jesse Jackson
00:22:30	holding hands with those old jewish
00:22:34	Who the hell is gonna argue with that?
00:22:37	I'm guessing that Mr. Jackson is going
00:22:40	down to a minimum this time around.
00:22:43	I want our protestors down there
00:22:47	Call Roger Stone...
00:22:51	Karl wants protestors
00:22:53	There you go.
00:22:55	Now listen, people,
00:22:56	this is a street fight
00:22:59	I'm told they have a well-oiled
00:23:04	It ain't gonna get
00:23:06	We want to proceed as if this
00:23:09	is a proper legal process,
00:23:12	not a political street fight.
00:23:14	Gore wants to pull Jesse Jackson
00:23:17	When I spoke to the Vice President
00:23:18	he said he wanted to fight this
00:23:21	There is concern
00:23:23	what should be an orderly process.
00:23:24	If a fight broke out and,
00:23:27	Even worse, a riot...
00:23:30	No one wants that.
00:23:32	Chaos will not help our cause.
00:23:35	Okay, I'll ask Donna
00:23:37	Our attorneys at Holland & Knight...
00:23:40	We had, but they suddenly discovered
00:23:43	It's pretty simple. Jeb Bush doles out
00:23:46	His chief counsel has made clear
00:23:49	of taking us on as a client.
00:23:51	So there is not one major law firm
00:23:55	This is already a mess.
00:23:57	Our first step should be exploring
00:24:01	The ballot was designed by a democrat
00:24:04	and approved by the democrats
00:24:07	They don't have a leg to stand on.
00:24:09	I went through a ballot configuration
00:24:14	There are no legal remedies.
00:24:15	The constitution says
00:24:18	must be held on a single day
00:24:20	There isn't a court in the state
00:24:23	to grant them a revote.
00:24:25	Looks like Chris won't be able
00:24:29	I'm sure Jim will want to negotiate
00:24:34	Some Palm Beach groups
00:24:36	- I think we should join them.
00:24:39	But if we're pursuing this as a legal
00:24:42	as Chris said,
00:24:45	Gore doesn't want to send the message
00:24:46	that he's suing to be
00:24:49	Absolutely no lawsuits.
00:24:51	I want to file a lawsuit in
00:24:57	It'd get thrown out immediately.
00:24:59	You bet,
00:25:00	but I want us on track
00:25:03	I don't think they'd even hear it.
00:25:05	And we'd get crucified by our own people
00:25:07	for pushing a state issue
00:25:09	Well, that's right,
00:25:12	but as some of you may know,
00:25:17	as did Lawton Chiles, the former
00:25:21	though I contend I was the better shot.
00:25:26	Now there's no love lost
00:25:29	ever since that dirty campaign
00:25:32	but I always liked Lawton
00:25:37	we would have ourselves a pleasant time
00:25:41	- Could I have another soda, please?
00:25:45	Now as two-time governor,
00:25:48	Chiles appointed six of the 7 justices
00:25:52	And I can tell you positively
00:25:55	they are the most flaming liberals
00:25:59	If we end up in the Florida
00:26:02	Now the U.S. Supreme Court
00:26:04	but Florida is a no shot.
00:26:07	Now we can sit here drinking tea
00:26:11	or we can start throwing punches.
00:26:12	And yes, we'll take a hit in the op-eds,
00:26:15	I don't want to see
00:26:17	unless it's to wrap garbage.
00:26:19	Johnny Apple says that
00:26:23	before the American people
00:26:26	I think we need to heed his advice.
00:26:28	I think we need
00:26:31	If we're trailing at the end
00:26:33	we're gonna have to request
00:26:36	You guys are dreaming.
00:26:38	- not in Florida.
00:26:39	'Cause their election laws
00:26:43	There's no mechanism
00:26:45	You have to go to each individual
00:26:48	Jesus, Bill, it's recount theory 101...
00:26:51	If you're behind, you demand recounts,
00:26:53	Okay, all right,
00:26:55	say by some sort of miracle
00:26:58	- How long do you think it will take?
00:27:00	The certification deadline
00:27:02	Look, if at the end of a machine
00:27:05	then we all should pack our bags, but
00:27:09	After winning
00:27:12	Lawton Chiles doesn't run
00:27:15	They control everything.
00:27:18	Katherine Harris is co-chair of the Bush
00:27:21	The entire legislature is republican.
00:27:24	What about some partial recounts,
00:27:26	- It is not gonna work.
00:27:29	were the main source
00:27:31	We'd be justified in asking
00:27:34	All three member the Palm Beach
00:27:37	They'll probably agree
00:27:39	We've got to start punching, Chris.
00:27:41	The Bush brothers are not gonna be
00:27:45	That may be true,
00:27:47	but the world is watching.
00:27:50	We are theoretically
00:27:54	If we cannot resolve this in a way
00:27:58	what kind of hope do we give other
00:28:07	Jesus.
00:28:09	"Last great democracy"?
00:28:11	- Come on, don't start.
00:28:14	I love Warren Christopher,
00:28:18	he probably eats his M&Ms
00:28:20	Listen, there's a giant scoreboard
00:28:22	We can't play a gentleman's game
00:28:24	Whoever has the ball
00:28:26	- is gonna be declared the winner.
00:28:29	He just doesn't want to set
00:28:31	Right now we're down by less
00:28:34	Meanwhile, there's 175,000 ballots
00:28:37	have declared non-votes.
00:28:39	- So that's 175,000 uncounted ballots.
00:28:43	Because punch-card ballots are fucked,
00:28:47	You got cardboard chad
00:28:48	that get punched but don't go
00:28:51	- so they're hanging off the ballot.
00:28:53	Chad.
00:28:54	What?
00:28:55	There's no "s."
00:28:57	The plural of chad is chad?
00:29:00	- "The last great democracy".
00:29:02	So when you take these ballots
00:29:04	and put them through
00:29:06	the hanging chad get pushed back
00:29:09	And the machines read it as if
00:29:12	so then these are discarded
00:29:14	But wait,
00:29:16	- they're just dimpled.
00:29:19	Which means that the voter didn't align
00:29:23	or just didn't push hard enough
00:29:26	How hard is it to punch a paper ballot?
00:29:27	It's pretty goddamn hard
00:29:30	you're arthritic and blind
00:29:32	Unfortunately for us, blind fucking bats
00:29:36	Not to mention the fact
00:29:37	that the votomatics sometimes
00:29:40	for years and years.
00:29:41	So they can get completely jammed up
00:29:43	- "Chad."
00:29:46	Sorry.
00:29:49	The next thing you know, it's impossible
00:29:52	So you just end up with dimpled chad.
00:29:55	This tends to happen in poorer
00:29:58	up-to-date, brand-new voting equipment.
00:30:00	And I don't have to tell you
00:30:02	vote for, okay?
00:30:05	we have to have actual live human beings
00:30:08	What about Chris and Daley?
00:30:10	You know what? I get it.
00:30:13	When this is over, you can go back
00:30:16	Listen.
00:30:18	You gotta get these guys to agree
00:30:23	Listen, everybody feels the same way
00:30:26	with the campaign, okay?
00:30:27	But Gore went with Coelho
00:30:30	And Tony proved it
00:30:33	Now it's time to prove to Al Gore who
00:30:37	It's time to show Al Gore
00:30:40	and that's he not gonna back down
00:30:47	Anyone ever tell you
00:30:54	Six counties have been reviewed so far.
00:30:58	2,909,153.
00:31:02	That's an increase of 18 votes for him.
00:31:05	Yes,
00:31:07	and apparently you did not actually run
00:31:10	We have our own standards
00:31:13	That may be,
00:31:15	but you are supposed to put the ballots
00:31:19	Hello, it's Clay Roberts here.
00:31:22	Things are very busy,
00:31:24	Hi, Mr. Roberts.
00:31:26	Yes, you must put the ballots through
00:31:30	Otherwise, you technically
00:31:34	We rechecked the memory cards,
00:31:36	and as far as I'm concerned,
00:31:40	I sent out guidelines
00:31:43	several months ago...
00:31:45	Mr. Roberts, we're just going to
00:31:48	Thank you for calling.
00:31:52	The world is watching us, Jim.
00:31:55	This is a tremendous opportunity
00:31:58	to show how a nation of our power
00:32:00	can resolve a conflict as great as this
00:32:03	through diplomacy and compromise.
00:32:06	Compromise?
00:32:08	I thought we were here
00:32:10	Well, yes,
00:32:13	but it was my feeling that
00:32:15	we should be able to agree on a method
00:32:18	There's nothing to settle.
00:32:21	If we're ahead at the completion
00:32:24	our position is this...
00:32:27	Katherine Harris will certify
00:32:29	No negotiations, no compromises,
00:32:32	Bush is President.
00:32:34	I go home. End of story.
00:32:43	It's always great to see you, Jim.
00:32:46	And you, Chris.
00:32:58	That's it?
00:33:00	For the present.
00:33:05	- You've got to be kidding.
00:33:08	A bit of a fight.
00:33:10	It is brass-knuckle time, Chris.
00:33:14	and I know Gore feels exactly
00:33:16	He says it in every conference call.
00:33:18	We may be ill-equipped to fight.
00:33:20	We're working out of a strip mall.
00:33:22	And I'm worried about his future.
00:33:24	He's a young man. He can run again,
00:33:26	but not if he destroys his career
00:33:29	But the fight is here, it's now.
00:33:33	Look,
00:33:33	Berger's moving us into
00:33:35	Whouley's setting up a base
00:33:38	and we've still got five more days
00:33:40	I agree that there is a battle
00:33:43	but we must also remember
00:33:45	in placing country above party.
00:33:52	Chris,
00:33:55	you've been a mentor to me
00:33:56	and I will forever be grateful
00:33:59	But I...
00:34:02	I can't do it like this.
00:34:06	We may well have won this election,
00:34:09	And we owe it to this country
00:34:11	- Guys.
00:34:13	The numbers are in on
00:34:16	All the counties in Florida have
00:34:19	and according
00:34:21	George W. Bush
00:34:24	by 327 votes.
00:34:27	Holy shit!
00:34:29	All right, Mr. Klain, all right.
00:34:31	We'll fight to count the two counties.
00:34:34	I want four.
00:34:36	We agreed on two.
00:34:37	I want to add Broward and Miami-Dade.
00:34:39	They're chock-full
00:34:41	We won't be able to finish before
00:34:44	It's physically impossible
00:34:47	to finish a hand recount
00:34:49	If we get ahead of Bush,
00:34:52	She'll have to extend the deadline.
00:34:56	We need to start placing
00:34:58	There's no logical reason for her
00:35:00	not to extend the deadline
00:35:03	The democrats in Florida,
00:35:07	are asking for a so-called hand count
00:35:10	in four democratic counties.
00:35:12	How in the world can
00:35:16	"I know this guy intended to vote
00:35:18	"even though he didn't punch
00:35:21	But Bob, first of all, this process
00:35:23	is specifically authorized
00:35:27	Maybe we should ask for recounts too,
00:35:29	but from Republican-leaning counties
00:35:33	Hell no.
00:35:34	Why do we need a recount?
00:35:36	We already won.
00:35:37	They gave up all their moral high ground
00:35:41	in the four most liberal counties
00:35:44	Al Gore is not interested
00:35:47	He's only interested in counting
00:35:49	Al Gore is not interested
00:35:54	He's only interested in counting
00:35:56	That's why he's cherry-picking votes
00:35:58	from the four most liberal counties
00:36:01	Now the votes have been counted
00:36:05	and in every case,
00:36:09	Hand recounts are chaotic.
00:36:11	They're unreliable
00:36:13	and they lead to mischief.
00:36:15	That's why we've moved on to machines.
00:36:29	Katherine?
00:36:37	Katherine, there's a problem.
00:36:40	18 of the 67 counties didn't
00:36:43	through the machines again.
00:36:45	They mostly did some sort of
00:36:47	retabulation of the memory cards.
00:36:50	That means that 1.5 million ballots
00:36:54	I think we need to be very quiet
00:36:56	Is somebody in my office?
00:36:59	It's Clay.
00:37:01	You never know
00:37:04	I was just thinking, 10 years ago
00:37:07	I was teaching the chicken dance
00:37:09	And now I've been thrust
00:37:11	into an electoral tempest
00:37:16	And the eyes of the world
00:37:24	The law states
00:37:27	after the certification deadline
00:37:31	There is some sort of natural disaster
00:37:35	which prevents counties
00:37:37	from turning in results on time,
00:37:40	such as a hurricane.
00:37:42	Secretary Harris,
00:37:47	My understanding is that the law
00:37:49	gives you the discretion
00:37:52	that it's up to you.
00:37:55	The law says
00:37:59	Does her makeup count as a hurricane?
00:38:02	No, thank you for your question.
00:38:05	We've all been a little confused,
00:38:09	and worried about the results
00:38:13	But no,
00:38:14	there will be
00:38:17	with either campaign.
00:38:19	I've instructed my staff to place
00:38:25	This woman is hopeless.
00:38:27	We're gonna need some help on this.
00:38:30	Vincis
00:38:31	vincit...
00:38:33	Vincimus,
00:38:35	vincitis,
00:38:37	vincunt.
00:38:39	Again.
00:38:40	Vinco,
00:38:42	vincis...
00:38:43	Come on now, you know I don't like calls
00:38:47	I'm just curious, Mac,
00:38:49	and parse latin verbs all day
00:38:53	Quo me vis?
00:38:54	What the hell does that mean?
00:38:56	It means, "Where do you want me?"
00:39:02	Pink sugar.
00:39:07	Sorry.
00:39:14	Sorry, Mac.
00:39:17	Listen, Katherine,
00:39:21	never having a chance
00:39:23	And those lucky enough
00:39:25	don't recognize it when it comes.
00:39:29	or that it's going to be next year
00:39:32	But if you're a public official
00:39:36	then today is your lucky day, darlin'.
00:39:39	You're about to pick
00:39:43	Don't you worry, Mac.
00:39:45	It's going to take a lot more
00:39:47	making fun of my hair
00:39:50	That is exactly why I backed
00:39:54	ran over to Mortham...
00:39:58	A woman of action, like Queen Esther.
00:40:02	Queen Esther?
00:40:04	I have been reading
00:40:08	and I have been feeling
00:40:09	this unusually strong kinship
00:40:13	You recall Queen Esther...
00:40:16	She was willing to sacrifice herself
00:40:19	to save the lovely jewish people.
00:40:23	And that's exactly
00:40:32	And if I perish,
00:40:34	I perish.
00:40:37	You have to stay strong, Katherine.
00:40:40	The world needs to see
00:40:41	that Katherine Harris is in charge.
00:40:47	You need to bring
00:40:52	Yeah.
00:40:54	Bring it in for a landing?
00:40:56	Bring it in for a landing
00:41:00	They're going to ask for extensions,
00:41:04	We don't have
00:41:10	Under the law,
00:41:13	when is a hand recount allowed
00:41:17	and when would it be denied?
00:41:21	It says, "Hand recounts are allowed
00:41:24	"if there is an error in vote tabulation
00:41:28	"which could affect
00:41:33	- It's vague.
00:41:35	The key then is interpreting what
00:41:38	"error in vote tabulation" means, right?
00:41:41	If there are ballots that the machine
00:41:45	then that would be
00:41:49	Just the existence of uncounted ballots
00:41:53	Our position has got
00:41:55	means how the systems tabulated them.
00:41:58	So the only way
00:42:01	is if the hardware
00:42:04	If there is no systems error,
00:42:09	Listen, Kerey,
00:42:13	We need you to go down
00:42:15	and offer them some guidance.
00:42:21	We have very little authority
00:42:25	Unless they request an advisory opinion.
00:42:29	Sure thing, Clay.
00:42:36	Live from Palm Beach.
00:42:38	With three days left
00:42:40	Palm Beach county
00:42:44	And based on
00:42:46	the canvassing board will then decide
00:42:49	the remaing 99% of their ballots.
00:42:54	- That's exactly the reason...
00:42:57	- we have in the boxes?
00:43:06	Judge Burton?
00:43:08	- Yes, can I help you?
00:43:12	Thank God.
00:43:13	This is a nightmare.
00:43:17	The laws are vague
00:43:20	- Dimple, no dimples, sunshine standard.
00:43:23	The division's position is that
00:43:26	Ultimately, though,
00:43:30	You just need to remember
00:43:33	you're going to have
00:43:35	Listen, we can't offer help unsolicited,
00:43:40	the dimple issue on your own,
00:43:43	on almost everything else.
00:43:45	- Really?
00:43:47	All you have to do
00:43:54	"Dear Judge Burton, this is in response
00:43:57	for an advisory opinion.
00:44:00	"A 'vote tabulation error'
00:44:02	"is an error in which
00:44:05	"Since no such error has occurred,
00:44:10	"are not authorized
00:44:13	"Sincerely yours, L. Clayton Roberts,
00:44:18	- What are Chris and Daley thinking?
00:44:20	We're getting pressure from our people
00:44:23	and shove the democrats back in line.
00:44:25	That's not gonna make any difference
00:44:28	Wait a minute, why don't we get
00:44:37	"Dear Judge Burton,
00:44:39	"since the DOE's advisory opinion
00:44:43	"with the existing Florida law,
00:44:48	The Palm Beach canvassing board
00:44:50	is listening to arguments
00:44:52	on how to proceed
00:44:56	The ballots punched
00:44:59	counted in the 1% recount
00:45:02	show that the butterfly ballot
00:45:05	of 6,000 votes!
00:45:10	Under these circumstances,
00:45:13	must proceed with the hand recount.
00:45:19	I represent the people
00:45:22	and I believe
00:45:26	is the only way to find out
00:45:31	The Secretary of State has told you
00:45:35	a hand recount.
00:45:36	It would be illegal for you
00:45:40	What happens?
00:45:43	Because I am willing to go to jail.
00:45:51	All right, we'll have a vote.
00:45:54	All those in favor
00:45:57	until we have received
00:46:01	Aye.
00:46:02	Aye.
00:46:03	All those opposed
00:46:07	Nay.
00:46:09	All right, the motion carries,
00:46:11	The canvassing board has voted
00:46:15	They've gotten an opinion
00:46:18	The Secretary of State. Her opinion
00:46:22	in vote tabulating system...
00:46:24	There's nothing wrong
00:46:26	This "tabulation systems"
00:46:28	is complete bullshit, Chris.
00:46:31	It is...
00:46:34	It has never been interpreted this way
00:46:37	They made it up two days ago.
00:46:39	If we don't take Katherine Harris
00:46:42	We've got to get this count up
00:46:47	I'm afraid I have some bad news.
00:46:50	- Chris is going back to L.A.?
00:46:53	I don't blame him for bailing.
00:46:56	And with Daley gone it means there
00:46:59	in the entire state
00:47:02	Bob Dole beat Bill Clinton in 1996.
00:47:04	- So what do you gonna do?
00:47:07	It's on right now.
00:47:09	Bush took himself out of the Florida
00:47:11	"Look, I already threw out
00:47:15	"and confused the old jews.
00:47:18	That's good.
00:47:20	Honey, if you want to leave,
00:47:22	No, Monica, I'm not going
00:47:25	Because I think Gore won this thing,
00:47:28	He's like a changed guy.
00:47:30	He's got this fire in him now,
00:47:33	He's even started calling me back.
00:47:37	- I'll have to call you back, honey.
00:47:39	What the hell
00:47:41	Early Hanukkah gift.
00:47:46	- Good morning, team.
00:47:49	I want to read you
00:47:51	from another state's election code,
00:47:55	"A hand recount shall be conducted
00:47:58	"to a machine recount."
00:48:00	It also says that dimpled chads
00:48:04	That's great, Ron, but we can't use
00:48:06	I know we can't,
00:48:09	and it was signed into law
00:48:13	George W. Bush?
00:48:15	Yes! All right, pass those out.
00:48:20	Point two...
00:48:22	following up on allegations
00:48:25	Jeremy is gonna hit the streets
00:48:27	And point three...
00:48:29	As you can see,
00:48:31	I'd like to introduce
00:48:33	at the Justice Department,
00:48:35	Thanks, Ron.
00:48:37	I've started with the difference between
00:48:42	The punchcard failure rate
00:48:44	And of course minority neighborhoods
00:48:48	I am shocked.
00:48:50	And, everyone, this is Mark Herron,
00:48:54	He's going to write a memo
00:48:56	by which absentee ballots
00:48:59	that some of these were sent
00:49:01	- And maybe more than just a few.
00:49:03	And you should also know
00:49:06	- for coming onboard with us.
00:49:10	Another piece of decent news...
00:49:12	Volusia County ignored
00:49:15	and they are almost completed
00:49:17	We should pick up about 100 votes there.
00:49:19	The bad news is that Madam Secretary
00:49:23	Unless, of course, there is a hurricane.
00:49:26	Which means that it's gonna be
00:49:28	to complete their recounts in time.
00:49:31	one... we continue to insist
00:49:34	and two... we argue that
00:49:37	every votes has a right to be counted.
00:49:40	Where do we argue? On C.N.N.?
00:49:42	Volusia County is going to sue Katherine
00:49:46	and we are going to join that lawsuit.
00:49:49	I thought Gore was against lawsuits.
00:49:51	I spoke to the Vice President
00:49:53	since Bush is dragging our ass
00:49:55	we can drag his ass into state court.
00:49:57	And this is Volusia County,
00:49:59	Get busy, boys and girls.
00:50:08	Thank you.
00:50:09	Looks like Christopher just joined
00:50:13	Christopher went back to L.A.
00:50:16	Ron Klain is running Tallahassee now.
00:50:18	- Who's Ron klain?
00:50:22	Former?
00:50:24	Can someone please explain this to me?
00:50:27	I don't care what Judge Burton says.
00:50:29	If he doesn't count dimpled chads,
00:50:32	Baker on line one.
00:50:35	I gotta call you back.
00:50:40	What can I do for you, Mr. Baker?
00:50:42	I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Klain,
00:50:43	but I was surprised to hear
00:50:47	Well, I figured that was the easiest way
00:50:52	Unfortunately, Mr. Klain,
00:50:55	That is a shame, sir,
00:50:57	right between my Sandy Koufax
00:51:02	I was sad to hear that Secretary Daley
00:51:05	left Tallahassee.
00:51:08	No, sir, I'll be here until
00:51:13	Then I should tell you you're probably
00:51:17	That's certainly one
00:51:21	All right, Mr. Klain.
00:51:24	You call back anytime, Mr. Baker.
00:51:30	He's gloating.
00:51:33	I think we're gonna lose tomorrow.
00:51:36	We are gonna lose tomorrow.
00:51:38	All right, so who's the best
00:51:44	And if you're just joing us, to recap
00:51:47	A Florida judge, Terry Lewis, coming out
00:51:50	and through a statement
00:51:54	the State of Florida does not have
00:51:57	currently taking place
00:52:00	- and in other counties that might be...
00:52:06	And if she believes it's the best thing
00:52:09	Hi, Ron, to what do I owe this pleasure?
00:52:11	This is not a final setback, but a
00:52:15	Mr. Boies...
00:52:16	- Yes, ma'am.
00:52:18	and the absentee ballots have pushed
00:52:22	is Gore going to change his strategy?
00:52:25	The strategy is the same. Al Gore
00:52:28	The very fact that Katherine Harris
00:52:31	counted after the deadline,
00:52:33	even though all the absentee ballots
00:52:36	makes it crystal clear that
00:52:39	to stop new votes from being counted.
00:52:42	What do you think?
00:52:44	- He's tough.
00:52:47	David Boies can destroy a witness
00:52:49	and make you think
00:52:52	His 20-hour Bill Gates
00:52:55	I heard he never uses notes.
00:52:57	He's dyslexic,
00:53:01	Let me be clear...
00:53:03	Judge Lewis's decision isn't the
00:53:07	that her people are claiming.
00:53:09	She stated that she can't accept ballots
00:53:12	unless there was a hurricane
00:53:14	and Judge Lewis said
00:53:17	that regardless of the weather,
00:53:18	the law clearly states
00:53:22	that it's her decision.
00:53:23	And if she wants
00:53:26	she has to come up with
00:53:30	Shouldn't I just ignore
00:53:33	- No, Katherine.
00:53:36	Katherine, this is a court order.
00:53:38	- You must obey it.
00:53:41	The judge said you have to come up
00:53:44	so we have to come up with a reason...
00:53:46	You know, something that shows
00:53:50	Why don't I just ask the counties
00:53:53	I should give them more time?
00:53:55	Shit, Katherine, that's good.
00:53:58	We just ask 'em.
00:54:01	I like it.
00:54:03	In accordance with
00:54:06	I have sent a letter to the counties
00:54:08	asking them to explain why I should
00:54:12	after the deadline
00:54:17	The counties must respond in writing
00:54:19	by 2:00 tomorrow.
00:54:22	On the advice of legal counsel,
00:54:26	- You need to tell us what's going on.
00:54:37	...has been made fun of
00:54:40	a lot of ridicule. Time Magazine
00:55:05	After careful consideration,
00:55:08	I am denying the counties' requests
00:55:10	to include ballots
00:55:13	The final tallies will be certified
00:55:18	On the advice of our legal counsel,
00:55:23	Well, that's not surprising.
00:55:25	So do we try to get the Florida Supreme
00:55:30	I don't think they'll grant us a stay.
00:55:34	The Florida Supreme Court just issued
00:55:38	- Are you kidding me?
00:55:40	And get this...
00:55:42	The Florida Supreme just went on
00:55:45	All right, people, listen up.
00:55:48	a lawyer who can't read his notes
00:55:51	who I may have mentioned... I'm not sure
00:55:55	I think it's time for our supporters
00:55:57	to exercise
00:56:16	- If Gore does not receive the ruling...
00:56:19	ballots counted after the deadline
00:56:25	Gore-inch,
00:56:28	Exactly.
00:56:28	Gore-nac, this is your bit.
00:56:31	- "I call this vote..."
00:56:36	Gore is a crybaby.
00:56:39	I want a recount!
00:56:41	Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw
00:56:45	Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw
00:57:04	The Gore campaign says further
00:57:08	but officials privately concede
00:57:10	an adverse ruling
00:57:13	would deal a fatal blow
00:57:16	At the completion
00:57:18	the difference between
00:57:22	Under Florida law, the trailing
00:57:25	is entitled to request hand recounts
00:57:30	If they had completed the recount by
00:57:34	Unfortunately, they did not.
00:57:35	Therefore the recount cannot continue.
00:57:38	Who knows how many votes
00:57:40	had Katherine Harris
00:57:42	there had to be an error in the system?
00:57:44	The Secretary of State
00:57:47	We implore the court to set
00:57:51	Voters are supposed
00:57:53	that are inside
00:57:56	They clearly state
00:57:57	that the ballot must be punched
00:58:00	Dimpled chads must be included
00:58:02	because they represent a voter's intent.
00:58:05	These issues of dimples
00:58:08	we believe hand recounts
00:58:11	Doesn't the current process in Texas,
00:58:16	state that hand recounts
00:58:19	and dimpled chads should be counted?
00:58:26	I really don't know what Texas law is.
00:58:52	Good evening.
00:58:56	I'm going to read the ruling
00:58:59	The Florida Supreme Court,
00:59:03	has reversed the circuit court ruling.
00:59:07	Ron, Ron, Ron.
00:59:09	Are you okay? I'm so sorry.
00:59:11	- No, we won.
00:59:13	We won!
00:59:15	It doesn't matter. We won.
00:59:17	- It does matter.
00:59:19	The counties are to hand-recount
00:59:21	and to achieve this goal, the final
00:59:25	November 26.
00:59:26	- They have five more days.
00:59:30	To disenfranchise electors,
00:59:34	is unreasonable,
00:59:35	unnecessary and violates
00:59:40	That is a personal attack.
00:59:42	Is this normal?
00:59:45	To reiterate,
00:59:46	there will be two counters
00:59:48	containing one member
00:59:51	Disputed ballots will be referred
00:59:54	Now one republican and
00:59:57	will be observing the counters
00:59:59	and will be allowed
01:00:02	Contested ballots will then be referred
01:00:04	to the canvassing board
01:00:06	- There's a small victory here.
01:00:09	They didn't set counting standards.
01:00:11	- We can still fight dimpled chads.
01:00:14	but the real question is
01:00:16	what would happen
01:00:21	I object to the ballot on the grounds it
01:00:24	That ballot does not conform
01:00:27	Bending the ballot can cause chad
01:00:31	- Gimme a break.
01:00:33	Number five, Gore.
01:00:35	I object to that vote on several counts.
01:00:37	- Number one, it's not...
01:00:39	he is intentionally trying
01:00:42	Got a five here, definitely a five.
01:00:43	This ballot does not have
01:00:47	- This woman is eating the chads.
01:00:49	- I object.
01:00:51	- I object.
01:00:54	A dimpled five. No-vote.
01:00:59	Dimple, number five. No-vote.
01:01:01	That dimple shows clear intent for Gore.
01:01:04	Chads don't indent themselves.
01:01:07	and Miami-Dade and Broward
01:01:10	Broward changed their standard
01:01:13	It was biased, unethical and unfair.
01:01:16	Gentlemen, there will be
01:01:19	Palm Beach will not be counting
01:01:21	What the hell is he doing? He's
01:01:25	Whouley says this will cost us
01:01:27	Look at this idiot.
01:01:30	The hand-counting of the ballots
01:01:32	that is ongoing is becoming
01:01:36	Ballots have been used as fans.
01:01:38	Ballots have post-it notes
01:01:40	God damn it!
01:01:41	An elderly counter
01:01:44	You have a 70-year-old man
01:01:47	How can he say it's fraud?
01:01:50	There's observers from both parties.
01:01:51	They're working under
01:01:53	Any response to these allegations?
01:01:55	This characterization of hand recounts
01:01:58	is an attempt to discredit
01:02:01	so that we'll miss the new deadline.
01:02:03	They're not counting votes.
01:02:06	They're deciding somebody
01:02:08	meant to vote for someone.
01:02:10	The republicans are the ones
01:02:13	and they're doing it to prevent
01:02:17	The ballots being looked
01:02:20	They're been recounted.
01:02:22	And this process
01:02:24	is prone to human error.
01:02:28	Carol, Carol, you need to see this.
01:02:31	It's all over the internet.
01:02:34	I really don't care
01:02:37	I just don't want them to think
01:02:49	Theresa, are you all right?
01:03:01	The election supervisor, she's had
01:03:04	And Carol Roberts has gotten
01:03:07	Certainly, the issues here...
01:03:09	- No-vote.
01:03:13	- No-vote.
01:03:15	Of course, of course.
01:03:17	No-vote.
01:03:20	Since Broward and Miami-Dade
01:03:23	and Palm Beach is not,
01:03:24	we can claim the recount
01:03:27	because all ballots aren't being
01:03:31	Rehnquist and Scalia won't go for it.
01:03:34	They've rarely ever ruled
01:03:36	We'd have to find a victim.
01:03:38	The law is designed
01:03:40	from having their voting rights
01:03:42	The victims are the people whose votes
01:03:45	when the exact same vote
01:03:49	I kind of like it.
01:03:52	Maybe Scalia and Thomas
01:03:58	I'm sorry to interrupt,
01:04:00	but I wasn't sure
01:04:03	What is it?
01:04:04	The pile of shit
01:04:06	He's trying to throw out
01:04:09	It's called the Herron memo.
01:04:11	My memo does not target military votes,
01:04:15	It states the exact standards
01:04:18	must meet in order to be counted.
01:04:21	These are ballots without postmarks,
01:04:23	without witness signatures or dates.
01:04:25	There's no way to tell
01:04:28	Thus they shouldn't be counted.
01:04:30	I was told that military ballots
01:04:33	because soldiers on tankers
01:04:36	That's correct, sir,
01:04:39	if a ballot is signed and
01:04:43	this would count the same as a postmark.
01:04:46	I'm not pulling this out of thin air,
01:04:49	This is the same issue the republicans
01:04:52	when they were worried
01:04:55	They held a press conference,
01:04:58	if absentee ballots
01:05:01	they should not be counted.
01:05:03	That's our line.
01:05:06	- All right, I got it.
01:05:11	So democratic lawyers
01:05:14	to overseas ballots
01:05:17	I think the problem here...
01:05:19	My own point of view, if I was there,
01:05:22	to ballots coming in
01:05:25	- God damn it!
01:05:28	and the kind of statements
01:05:30	- But the problem here is...
01:05:35	I apologize. I...
01:05:38	- apologize to everyone.
01:05:42	If they have the capacity, I'd urge them
01:05:45	- Ron, Daley is on line two.
01:05:53	Gore is going ballistic.
01:05:56	I think Joe Lieberman just
01:06:00	The wise Senator Lieberman
01:06:03	at these military ballots and
01:06:05	I see no reason not
01:06:08	I want to go back to every
01:06:11	to get these ballots counted.
01:06:14	Okaloosa, Santa Rosa, Pasco.
01:06:18	They've had what I would call
01:06:20	- Let's get on it.
01:06:23	Hell's bells, folks,
01:06:26	has stated these ballots
01:06:30	I think that speaks volumes. Don't you?
01:06:32	But this ballot does not have a postmark
01:06:36	or a witness signature and no date.
01:06:39	Therefore it's impossible to prove
01:06:43	and it shouldn't be counted.
01:06:45	Your Honor,
01:06:48	that bullet won't have
01:06:53	I'll count it.
01:07:07	Thank you, Joe Lieberman.
01:07:29	- May I help you?
01:07:32	I'm Pastor Whiting.
01:07:35	Pastor Whiting.
01:07:38	My name is Jeremy Bash.
01:07:42	I understand you were turned away
01:07:47	Yeah, I was.
01:07:49	Do you have a minute to talk?
01:07:57	What's going on?
01:07:58	This is the official voter purge list.
01:08:02	What's that?
01:08:03	The reason people were turned away
01:08:06	These people were scrubbed
01:08:09	because they were supposed
01:08:13	But there are a ton
01:08:15	that never committed
01:08:18	- How does a thing like that happen?
01:08:21	paid database technologies $4.3 million
01:08:25	to compile a list of convicted felons
01:08:29	would not be allowed to vote.
01:08:30	And then they instructed D.B.T.
01:08:34	"Capture more names
01:08:38	This is an actual
01:08:41	So the list is comprised of felons
01:08:44	and anyone whose name happens
01:08:48	I met Willie D. Whiting. He is a pastor,
01:08:51	but his name is similar
01:08:54	so he was told he couldn't vote.
01:08:57	The supervisor in Leon County
01:09:00	person by person.
01:09:02	And of the 697 names
01:09:06	he found
01:09:09	And the supervisor in Miami-Dade,
01:09:11	he complained that his list
01:09:14	"Look, even if the names don't match,
01:09:18	Okay, so?
01:09:20	How many people were
01:09:24	20,000 people.
01:09:26	Almost half of them
01:09:33	So can we do anything with this?
01:09:36	You can't get votes back
01:09:39	All we can do is turn this
01:09:41	and hope that they can stop it in 2002.
01:10:00	Remember Elian!
01:10:02	Cuban-Americans are out in force
01:10:06	still enraged by Clinton's decision
01:10:10	Congressman Sweeney,
01:10:13	I'm here because Miami-Dade
01:10:14	has become ground zero
01:10:23	Dimpled number six... Gore.
01:10:27	Dimple six... Gore.
01:10:31	- Dimple six... Gore.
01:10:33	Duly noted.
01:10:34	We're the new republican party!
01:10:38	Bush won!
01:10:40	Bush won twice!
01:10:42	- Bush won twice!
01:10:45	Let's go, pass them out!
01:10:53	Hello.
01:10:53	I just heard from our guys
01:10:57	The board decided to count undervotes
01:11:00	They're counting in secret.
01:11:02	Well, shut it down.
01:11:04	Number six for Gore.
01:11:07	Dimpled six... that's for Gore.
01:11:14	We want to have a small protest up
01:11:17	Nobody wants to get arrested.
01:11:19	We just want to make our point.
01:11:21	After you've heard enough,
01:11:24	What do you think's gonna happen?
01:11:25	Look at the way we're dressed.
01:11:38	Sit in here.
01:11:40	You can't go in. You can't go in.
01:11:42	Hey, hold on. Stay back.
01:11:47	Punched number seven... no-vote.
01:11:50	- Punched number seven hole... no-vote.
01:11:53	It's obvious...
01:11:54	Number five is for Bush,
01:11:57	These voters clearly did not insert
01:12:01	This is preposterous.
01:12:03	We can't guess who
01:12:05	when they punched a blank hole.
01:12:07	Let's get a blank ballot
01:12:09	- Go.
01:12:11	Dimpled number four... Bush.
01:12:14	Could I have everybody's attention?
01:12:16	There is a full protest out in the lobby
01:12:18	and I think
01:12:23	Let's keep going.
01:12:24	Let us in!
01:12:32	Cheaters, cheaters!
01:12:35	Hi, I'm a lawyer with the recount.
01:12:39	Thank you.
01:12:42	- He's got a ballot!
01:12:47	He stole a ballot!
01:12:49	This guy...
01:12:50	He voted for Gore. He's a lawyer
01:12:52	- Settle down.
01:12:54	I'm a lawyer with the recount.
01:12:57	- Let me by.
01:12:59	Stop kicking me!
01:13:01	- Get away from me!
01:13:05	Leave me alone.
01:13:06	Stop that man!
01:13:12	Cheaters!
01:13:18	The Colonel and I
01:13:22	Who the fuck is the Colonel?
01:13:27	He's going back! He has a ballot!
01:13:29	You're in big trouble, pal, all right?
01:13:31	Don't put your hands on me.
01:13:33	I'm gonna defend myself if you put
01:13:37	It's against the law.
01:13:41	It's voter fraud!
01:13:43	Arrest him! He stole a ballot!
01:13:45	No justice! No peace!
01:13:49	Hold on.
01:13:52	Let us in!
01:13:58	We'd better take a break
01:14:02	- That's it.
01:14:07	We take Judge Burton to court,
01:14:08	we get the ruling we want:
01:14:11	- What the hell...?
01:14:13	They're about to hold a hearing.
01:14:15	Miami-Dade? A hearing about what?
01:14:18	This morning I felt
01:14:20	we could count the undervotes
01:14:23	but we are in a very different
01:14:26	A radically different situation.
01:14:29	I cannot sit here and tell you
01:14:32	that if we begin the process
01:14:34	that we can complete it
01:14:36	What the hell is going on?
01:14:38	Therefore I am going
01:14:41	the Miami-Dade recount.
01:14:44	I object!
01:14:46	This is for the presidency
01:14:49	We have to at least try
01:14:53	Mr. Young, I would like to tell you
01:14:57	but I don't think we can.
01:14:59	- I'm gonna vote we stop counting.
01:15:05	- I am also going to vote to stop.
01:15:10	We can get these votes counted!
01:15:12	We have to get these votes counted!
01:15:17	A Gore lawyer Ron Klain said that a mob
01:15:20	stormed the counting facility
01:15:24	That's the myth. Here are the facts.
01:15:27	The demonstration was noisy
01:15:29	and peaceful and nothing else.
01:15:33	There were little kids there. There was,
01:15:37	A holiday atmosphere?
01:15:40	These kids were congressional aides
01:15:43	...by the Supreme Court.
01:15:46	Mr. Lakey and others said
01:15:49	You know, I think I might owe you
01:15:54	For what?
01:15:56	Because I'm afraid you might
01:16:01	- who lost Al Gore the Presidency.
01:16:05	I'm never gonna get a job again
01:16:09	Me too.
01:16:13	- You know what's funny about all this?
01:16:18	I'm not even sure I like Al Gore.
01:16:27	And it really is time
01:16:30	Thank you.
01:16:31	Well,
01:16:33	I say
01:16:34	whoever stops fighting
01:16:37	It's absurd.
01:16:39	It's completely absurd.
01:16:41	where the votes aren't being recounted
01:16:44	Not a single person seems to care.
01:16:46	You know what I'd like to know?
01:16:49	Who won this fucking election?
01:16:54	Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:56	unfortunately,
01:16:59	the Palm Beach County
01:17:03	As you know,
01:17:04	the Florida SC has issued an opinion
01:17:09	assuming that the Secretary of State's
01:17:13	Now if they're not,
01:17:14	then we would have until 9:00 a.m.
01:17:18	I have just sent a letter
01:17:20	explaining that we are exhausting
01:17:24	We are requesting an extension
01:17:28	As we know, Katherine Harris
01:17:30	is interested in getting
01:17:34	so we see no reason
01:17:36	why the Secretary of State
01:17:42	Thank you.
01:17:45	- I think we should let them have it.
01:17:49	They're almost finished anyway.
01:17:52	And then we'll accept any result
01:17:55	God damn it, you stupid son of bitch,
01:18:00	We are so close, Katherine.
01:18:04	Just shut it down.
01:18:08	It's only a few more hours.
01:18:15	The Florida Supreme Court stated
01:18:19	the returns are due at 5:00 p.m.
01:18:22	It's sunday. We're open.
01:18:28	I have no choice but to follow the law.
01:18:40	Of course, it's your call, but I think
01:18:46	Ladies and gentlemen,
01:18:47	after counting 460,000 ballots
01:18:51	with approximately
01:18:54	the Secretary of State has decided
01:18:59	Apparently, that's how she has chosen
01:19:07	Quit it.
01:19:53	Good evening.
01:19:57	On behalf of the state elections
01:20:02	and in accordance
01:20:06	I hereby declare Governor George W. Bush
01:20:10	the winner of Florida's
01:20:15	for the President of the United States.
01:20:18	I wish to point out
01:20:22	has triumphed once again
01:20:25	in which we can all take
01:20:31	The true winner in the election
01:20:36	- Nice touch.
01:20:37	Classy.
01:20:39	and may God bless America.
01:20:43	...to candy crowley in Austin, Texas
01:20:46	have to be watching this very closely
01:20:49	It may be close,
01:20:53	has pronounced them the winner
01:20:55	and they're gonna be
01:21:04	She wishes it was over.
01:21:10	David Boies, the attorney
01:21:13	said again they will contest Nassau
01:21:16	They're also gonna work on Palm Beach.
01:21:18	The two briefs for Miami-Dade and Nassau
01:21:23	at 9:00 a. m. local time
01:21:25	It may slide to 10:00 a.m...
01:21:29	We'd like to contest the election
01:21:35	Please, God, let it be Nikki Clark,
01:21:42	The wheel has given you...
01:21:54	The Court finds and concludes
01:21:58	the evidence does not establish
01:22:01	any illegality, dishonesty,
01:22:05	improper influence,
01:22:07	coercion or fraud in the balloting
01:22:11	Any comment on the verdict?
01:22:12	They won, we lost.
01:22:17	Mr. Baker, reaction, please.
01:22:18	We are grateful that judge Sauls
01:22:20	has upheld the rule of law
01:22:25	It's time for the Vice President
01:22:28	and end our national uncertainty.
01:22:30	I think the american people
01:22:33	Perhaps Mr. Gore
01:22:39	I want to fight this thing as long as
01:22:44	but the country is already so divided.
01:22:46	I wonder when ending this
01:22:50	I believe we end this thing
01:22:52	have been counted
01:22:57	When you can't win
01:23:00	even if you won.
01:23:04	I'm really glad
01:23:08	Me too, Mr. Vice President.
01:23:11	- Good luck in court tomorrow.
01:23:14	- I'll speak to you tomorrow.
01:23:26	Today's showdown in Florida's
01:23:29	especially for Al Gore.
01:23:31	While he trails George W. Bush
01:23:36	but uncertified vote tally,
01:23:39	may make or break Gore's fight
01:23:43	So someone who
01:23:47	would say, "we want a recount,"
01:23:49	and then we would have to have
01:23:53	We have pinpointed 215 votes
01:23:57	168 in Miami-Dade through hand recounts,
01:24:00	so we know that if you look at ballots,
01:24:03	where a machine could not.
01:24:12	Sir, would you like a bulletproof vest?
01:24:16	No, thank you.
01:24:30	Good afternoon.
01:24:34	The Florida Supreme Court today
01:24:37	in the case of Albert Gore, Jr.
01:24:42	In the contest brief,
01:24:46	that Miami-Dade
01:24:49	and for Palm Beach
01:24:51	with a standard
01:24:55	He also requested the inclusion
01:25:00	215 votes from Palm Beach
01:25:05	all counted during the protest phase,
01:25:07	but not included
01:25:10	All right, come on, send me home.
01:25:12	In its four-to-three ruling,
01:25:14	the Court rejects Gore's request
01:25:20	The Court also rejects the inclusion
01:25:26	However, the Court
01:25:30	of the 215 legal votes in Palm Beach...
01:25:33	What?
01:25:34	...and the 168 legal
01:25:38	- The Court also orders an immediate
01:25:40	hand recount of the 9,000
01:25:45	in Miami-Dade.
01:25:47	They can't do this.
01:25:49	In addition,
01:25:51	a hand recount of all
01:25:55	in the entire State of Florida.
01:26:00	Fantastic.
01:26:02	Unbelievable.
01:26:06	The recount is to proceed immediately
01:26:11	December 12th... three days.
01:26:13	We can do it.
01:26:15	They're going to count the whole state.
01:26:17	Thanks to you.
01:26:18	...obviously what happens here
01:26:20	is the V.P
01:26:22	But he's got several more big fights...
01:26:26	get me Gore.
01:26:28	As many as 58 counties are going back
01:26:30	to the ballot boxes recounting
01:26:32	by order of the state Supreme Court.
01:26:34	More than 40,000 ballots are in play.
01:26:37	The Leon County judge charged
01:26:39	has set a target deadline
01:26:42	for the recount to be complete.
01:26:45	The Illinois senate democrat
01:26:47	reacting to the Florida Supreme
01:26:51	"two strikes, two outs
01:26:53	"and Gore gets a hit"
01:26:56	We know that spokesman Craig Waters
01:27:08	I want to request an immediate stay
01:27:10	in the U.S. Supreme Court
01:27:16	We have to prove "irreparable harm".
01:27:18	On what grounds would the counting
01:27:21	Well, how about the fact
01:27:24	just gave Al Gore a statewide recount,
01:27:27	They're not even trying
01:27:30	That's true,
01:27:33	Wait a minute,
01:27:35	did you look at justice Wells's dissent?
01:27:37	I have a deep and abiding concern
01:27:39	that the prolonging
01:27:41	propels this state and this country
01:27:44	into an unprecedented
01:28:00	If this election is not resolved
01:28:03	a very interesting scenario arises.
01:28:07	According to the electoral
01:28:11	if an election is not resolved
01:28:13	then statelegislators can decide
01:28:14	who to award
01:28:17	Wait a minute,
01:28:20	the Florida legislature could award
01:28:24	no matter what the results
01:28:27	My people have talked
01:28:29	and they all agree it would be a legal
01:28:32	We're calling it
01:28:41	If this election is not resolved
01:28:43	of December 12th,
01:28:44	then it is the legislators'
01:28:46	that Florida's 25 electoral votes
01:28:49	- Mr. Speaker!
01:28:51	Any validity to allegations
01:28:53	with Bush lawyers?
01:28:54	I have not had any contact
01:28:58	probably since...
01:29:00	In a good 24 hours.
01:29:03	I need more phones
01:29:06	Ron, they asked the United States
01:29:10	I seriously doubt they'll grant it.
01:29:12	There's no way the counting of votes
01:29:15	Congress resolves presidential disputes,
01:29:19	The protectors of the constitution
01:29:21	to stay the hell away from all of this.
01:29:25	If the current pace is maintained,
01:29:29	by about 9:00 tonight.
01:29:33	Escambia County... plus three.
01:29:35	Michael, Okeechobee...
01:29:37	Okeechobee... plus 10, guys.
01:29:40	Madison... plus two.
01:29:42	You've gotta come down four.
01:29:43	Madison... plus two.
01:29:45	- Jeremy
01:29:46	Down two more. Down two.
01:29:49	What are we at?
01:29:51	Osceola... up three.
01:29:54	Osceola... up three.
01:29:56	That's just one.
01:29:58	We picked up three in Suwannee
01:30:02	We're minus three for Palm, okay?
01:30:04	Minus three.
01:30:06	Orange County... plus 18.
01:30:11	Jan, we got Manatee...
01:30:14	Down one, Manatee.
01:30:17	Clay's up two.
01:30:21	- What's that?
01:30:23	98 votes.
01:30:26	- Wait, how many more counties?
01:30:29	- Madison... plus two.
01:30:34	Hey, guys,
01:30:36	the U.S. Supreme Court
01:30:39	All counting across the state
01:30:43	- You gotta be kidding.
01:30:45	- How could they have...?
01:30:47	I'm getting Boies.
01:30:50	The U.S. SC, one, stays the order
01:30:54	which seemed to stop
01:30:56	and secondly,
01:30:59	will hear the case on monday...
01:31:02	It's terrific.
01:31:06	...dissents were over the fact
01:31:08	They say "to stop
01:31:11	the majority today departs from three
01:31:15	that have guided the Court
01:31:17	So the dissent is based on the fact
01:31:19	that they shouldn't have
01:31:21	Guys, just got this from Al Gore.
01:31:24	He says, quote, "make sure no one
01:31:28	end quote.
01:31:40	Preventing the recount
01:31:43	will inevitably cast a cloud
01:31:48	The Florida Court's ruling
01:31:52	that every legal vote should be counted.
01:31:56	The majority has acted unwisely.
01:32:00	I believe a brief response is necessary
01:32:05	The counting of votes that are
01:32:10	threaten irreparable harm
01:32:13	and to the country,
01:32:15	by casting a cloud upon what he claims
01:32:17	to be the legitimacy of his election.
01:32:20	Mr. Boies, Mr. Boies.
01:32:22	Since the United States Supreme Court
01:32:25	won't this prevent you
01:32:28	by the December 12th deadline?
01:32:29	It's the single most disappointing thing
01:32:31	that the five justices have done.
01:32:33	To put it simply,
01:32:36	How counting votes could have
01:32:39	is mind-boggling.
01:32:40	Mr. Boies, Mr. Boies.
01:32:43	Second row.
01:32:44	Do you have a strategy for the hearing?
01:32:46	Yes.
01:32:47	Our strategy begins
01:32:51	every vote from every citizen
01:32:55	And we believe that is what will
01:33:00	It is the decisive moment
01:33:02	and the crowds who surround
01:33:06	demonstrators have been here
01:33:09	awaiting the beginning
01:33:12	The justices inside this building
01:33:20	So Olson's primary argument
01:33:23	changed the law
01:33:26	Kennedy has never seemed impressed
01:33:30	What about the equal
01:33:32	I don't think Olson
01:33:34	It's buried in
01:33:39	I'm only eating the red ones today.
01:33:49	I think Kennedy is our only shot.
01:33:59	This is it, isn't it?
01:34:03	Yes, Ron, this is it.
01:34:09	Oyez,
01:34:13	before the honorable
01:34:17	are admonished to draw near
01:34:20	for this Court is now sitting.
01:34:22	God save the United States
01:34:26	I understand you think that the system
01:34:29	because it's different standards
01:34:33	but what in your opinion
01:34:36	Certainly, at minimum, Justice Breyer,
01:34:38	a penetration of the ballot card
01:34:41	Well, would the starting point be what
01:34:45	Katherine Harris decided
01:34:49	I would agree with that,
01:34:51	I'd still like to get your view
01:34:57	A reasonable standard
01:35:00	a penetration of the chad in the ballot,
01:35:03	because dimples or indentations
01:35:07	I think there is a uniform standard.
01:35:09	The standard is whether
01:35:12	is reflected by the ballot.
01:35:14	That's very general.
01:35:16	even a dog knows the difference between
01:35:21	so would you say from the standpoint
01:35:25	each county
01:35:27	as to what "intent" means?
01:35:29	I think what's bothering justice Kennedy
01:35:31	is the rule to counting dimpled chads
01:35:36	Broward and Miami-Dade
01:35:40	What would you tell them to do about it?
01:35:43	Well, I think
01:35:46	You'd tell them
01:35:51	Yes, I would tell them
01:35:54	I think I would say,
01:35:57	then the Texas standard,
01:36:00	gives you a pretty good standard.
01:36:02	It says dimpled chads should be counted.
01:36:05	Why isn't the standard the one
01:36:07	that voters are instructed to follow,
01:36:11	I mean, it couldn't be clearer.
01:36:14	Well, your honor,
01:36:18	Darby v. State,
01:36:22	that where the intent of the voter
01:36:25	even if they don't do what they're told,
01:36:27	their vote is supposed to be counted.
01:36:30	For the last 80 years
01:36:34	that the right to participate
01:36:37	is more important than a voter's ability
01:36:41	Mr. Boies, let's assume
01:36:43	counties used different standards
01:36:46	At that point, in your judgment,
01:36:49	would it be a violation
01:36:51	"I don't care that they used
01:36:54	as they purported to follow
01:36:58	Can we do that?
01:37:02	I'll extend your time
01:37:07	I do not believe that violates
01:37:11	It is impossible
01:37:14	when different types of voting machines
01:37:16	and different types of ballots
01:37:20	Hand-counting and recounting of ballots
01:37:23	under the "intent of the voter"
01:37:25	not the exception,
01:37:29	indeed, since its founding.
01:37:46	It is the moment of truth.
01:37:49	use this moment to determine who is
01:37:53	There are many ways
01:37:55	The two most commonly discussed
01:38:00	it could ask Florida
01:38:02	Does anyone want to play cards?
01:38:13	It's in!
01:38:15	Our long wait is over.
01:38:17	Greta Van Susteren, another CNN legal
01:38:21	Bernie, what it seems
01:38:23	that we don't know for sure.
01:38:25	"The closeness of this election
01:38:29	"challenges which..."
01:38:30	- What's that mean?
01:38:44	I'm gonna put you on speakerphone,
01:38:47	- Are you still there, sir?
01:38:51	There are two rulings
01:38:54	the first is a seven-to-two ruling
01:38:56	that there is an equal
01:38:59	and the second ruling is the remedy
01:39:01	which is five-to-four.
01:39:31	Yes, I need to speak
01:39:39	The majority has ruled that since
01:39:43	set by the Florida Supreme Court...
01:39:50	then there isn't time to resolve
01:39:56	and therefore the recount must end.
01:39:59	The S.C shuts down the recount
01:40:02	Then they say that we can't start up
01:40:06	That's pretty much it, sir.
01:40:09	What you got, Jim? Seems like nobody
01:40:12	Congratulations, Mr. President-elect.
01:40:19	- Did you hear that?
01:40:25	Ron, you gotta read this.
01:40:28	Right there.
01:40:30	What is it, Ron?
01:40:32	The Court has ruled
01:40:34	that this decision is, quote,
01:40:38	"limited
01:40:40	"to the present circumstances".
01:40:44	Unbelievable.
01:40:50	The Supreme Court has declared
01:40:55	and then it never counts again.
01:40:57	Have they ever done that before?
01:40:59	Never once in the history
01:41:03	What do you think, David?
01:41:05	I think the ruling
01:41:07	but the point is crystal clear...
01:41:13	Mr. Vice President,
01:41:16	The majority ruled that there is
01:41:19	because different counties
01:41:21	So let's petition
01:41:23	and get them to set
01:41:25	Under these circumstances,
01:41:28	David?
01:41:30	I think Ron's lost his mind,
01:41:34	but I'll drink the kool-aid.
01:41:37	The Florida House has already voted
01:41:41	Yeah, but then
01:41:43	one to set standards,
01:41:45	We can do this, sir.
01:41:47	Ron, nobody can fault you
01:41:50	No, Mr. Vice President.
01:41:56	You cannot concede.
01:42:05	I beg of you, sir,
01:42:15	Klain is gonna petition
01:42:20	Sometimes a soldier
01:42:22	even when he knows the war is done.
01:42:25	I've run over 25 recounts
01:42:29	the extent that democrats will lie,
01:42:33	I mean, if we hadn't played hardball,
01:42:36	Now, Ben, I was a democrat
01:42:41	I have always wondered
01:42:48	My wife passed away... cancer.
01:42:52	I'm so sorry.
01:42:54	Thank you.
01:42:56	she was too young.
01:42:58	A very close friend of mine,
01:43:01	was running for senate
01:43:04	to take my mind off the grief.
01:43:08	I told him I had never worked
01:43:11	and I was a democrat to boot,
01:43:15	he just didn't want
01:43:20	That's a good friend.
01:43:23	He sure is.
01:43:57	The Vice President's on the phone.
01:44:20	- Good morning, Mr. Vice President.
01:44:23	What can I do for you, sir?
01:44:26	I couldn't sleep last night.
01:44:30	but then I remembered
01:44:34	He said that I have to end this war
01:44:38	when I know I can't win.
01:44:43	Ron,
01:44:45	I can't win.
01:44:47	Even if I win,
01:44:49	I can't win.
01:44:54	I'm sorry, sir. I...
01:45:01	I just...
01:45:06	I just couldn't get them counted.
01:45:09	I'll never forget
01:45:13	I will never forget.
01:45:21	Thank you, Mr. Vice President.
01:45:52	Ron, we should still file the petitions.
01:45:55	Let's just see if it works.
01:45:58	We've come this far, Ron.
01:46:00	Yeah, we can keep
01:46:10	I want to tell you all
01:46:13	with such a dedicated and focused group
01:46:18	I'm enormously grateful
01:46:26	But it's time for us to stop.
01:46:37	People are going to say all kinds
01:46:41	That it was down to 154 votes,
01:46:46	that the U.S. Supreme Court
01:46:50	but I want you to remember
01:46:54	Never once did we trail Gore.
01:46:57	And who knows how many votes we lost
01:47:00	when the networks
01:47:02	before all the polls
01:47:05	But more important than all that
01:47:09	is that the system worked.
01:47:13	There were no tanks on the streets.
01:47:15	This peaceful transfer of power
01:47:19	in the most emotional
01:47:24	is a testament to the strength
01:47:29	and to our faith
01:47:33	in the rule of law.
01:47:49	It took a long time getting here...
01:47:56	but here's to George W. Bush,
01:47:59	the 43rd President of The United States.
01:48:02	Hear hear!
01:48:08	We should have asked
01:48:10	That was our biggest mistake.
01:48:14	And Ralph Nader should've
01:48:17	And Elian Gonzales
01:48:20	And Gore should've
01:48:22	And Clinton should've got
01:48:24	from Sharon Stone instead of
01:48:27	would have shot through the roof.
01:48:29	And Katherine Harris should've thought
01:48:32	from the rolls.
01:48:34	should have never
01:48:40	It is what it is, pal.
01:48:44	gather our information
01:48:46	Even after all the mistakes
01:48:49	we still had about half a day there
01:48:53	Do you think
01:48:55	the Supreme Court would have stopped it?
01:49:02	Good question.
01:49:07	Would you get this on board?
01:49:11	Mr. Secretary.
01:49:21	Good to see you, Mr. Klain.
01:49:24	So did the best man win then?
01:49:26	You bet.
01:49:29	Are you sure about that?
01:49:31	As sure as you are about your man.
01:49:36	I hope you're right, Mr. Secretary.
01:49:43	You have a safe trip, Mr. Klain.
01:49:46	Thank you, sir.
01:49:58	Good evening, my fellow Americans.
01:50:01	I appreciate so very much
01:50:03	to speak with you tonight.
01:50:06	Tonight I want to thank
01:50:09	and campaign workers
01:50:16	Republicans want the best
01:50:22	I was not elected to serve one party,
01:50:27	The President of the United States
01:50:28	is the President
01:50:31	of every race and every background.
01:50:34	Whether you voted for me or not,
01:50:36	I will do my best
01:50:39	and I will work to earn your respect.
01:50:43	Just moments ago,
01:50:45	and congratulated him on becoming
01:50:51	and I promised him
01:50:55	I know that many of my supporters
01:50:59	But our disappointment
01:51:04	This is America,
01:51:08	We will stand together
01:51:11	As for the battle that ends tonight,
01:51:14	I do believe, as my father once said,
01:51:18	defeat may serve as well as victory
01:51:23	- Thank you and good night.
01:51:25	And God bless America.
