If by interesting you mean annoying and wasteful, then yes, yes it will be interesting.

Sorry for the delay in response and it's not really relevant now, but...

I didn't think George Bush would have gone to a lot of trouble for litigation because he wouldn't have wanted to look like a buffoon ala Al Gore 2000.

Off topic
but is it any wonder why Dems make snarky remarks about Bush?

And I didn't see it as buffoon like.
The race was too close. And Florida too messy. Some Dems don't think that Gore shouldn't have given up quite as fast as he did.

no kidding, Al Gore, just used his right as every American is entitled to. That's why Kerry is in such a hurry to demand a recount, because it makes a person look so good to be a sore loser. Kerry is a smarter guy than Gore or Bush. Some day he just might figure out how to reach out to us plain folk.

I'm a democrat who voted for Al Gore and I thought the whole Florida recount was an unbelievable mess and made Al look like a whiner and sore loser.

That said, the 2000 race was close and I understand why the recount was demanded and agreed with it at the time, but it dragged out way too long and was entirely more complicated than it needed to be.
