i was surprised to see the bush campaign late this afternoon press forward for an injunction to stop the manual recount. i understand it legalistically; they want to moot the possibility that harris's denial of the late, amended vote counts (dade, broward, volusia, palm beach) will be overturned in a higher state court. but politically it looks like piling on. maybe shrub isn't content to enter office with a 40 percent approval rating; maybe he wants to shoot for 25 or 30.
