Well, in all honesty...what are they supposed to be covering?  It's all over
except for the counting, and I for one would rather see the daytime talk
rather than endless rehashes of stuff I was sick of hearing at 8 am.  Better
they just cool their jets and wait for the recount.

    On the other hand, as obligatory UA fodder, think of the Major and
Significant Charges bouncing around.  Whatever infomancer fooled Gore into
making a concession move got one...  The Cliomancers in Chicago re-enacting
the "voting of the dead" ritual from the 1960 Kennedy/Nixon election get
one... Think of the power that the State's Attorney in Florida gets if he's
following a Path, perhaps the Necessary Servant?... Hillary could be
channeling the Carpetbagger, or something like the Flying Woman?... An
Annihilomancer could certainly get some charges from destroying ballots in a
significant ritual against America... And who knows who profited from the
revelation that Bush had a DUI in his past?  Yeah, the Statosphere is
hopping.
    I wonder if Mak Attax is behind this, too? ;)
    Yeah, a UA game set over the last couple of days has real potential.
