Exactly, that's why this should be viewed as a harbinger of the popular vote, not the election. Also, I hope you are being euphemistic about Mr. Gore stepping aside. As I recall, he put up quite a fight! Hopefully, we will have a clear winner this year, as this nation, as you point out, could easily erupt into chaos. None of us want that, I'm sure.
