@Snoink, thanks for the explanation. I remember the 2000 election (we had to color in states as the totals came in...Florida was definitely purple), but not that well apparently.
I did write a rousing political anthem about it though (I was sick in bed Thanksgiving weekend and apparently too lazy to change the channel) which I now think needs an update
To the tune of "The Song that Never Ends"
Original: The Florida recount never ends 'Cause it goes on and on my friends Some people starting counting votes not knowing what it was And now they'll keep on counting votes forever just because The Florida recount never ends..."
Updated for us: "Old Pat Buchanan never ends 'Cause he lives on and on my friends Some people cast their votes for him not knowing who he was and now on here we vote for him forever just because.."
