In a stunning example of how America’s effort to export its style of democracy around the world is succeeding, Ukrainian presidential candidate Viktor Yanukovich, though the clear loser in the recent runoff election, has vowed to fight this battle all the way to his country’s Supreme Court. To increase his odds of stealing the election from the rightful winner, Viktor Yushchenko, Mr. Yanukovich has brought in former American Vice President Al Gore’s Florida recount team.
At a well-choreographed press conference in Kiev, Yanukovich introduced Bill Clinton’s Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, along with high-priced attorney, David Boies.
“We’re very pleased to be working together again,” said an obviously flattered Boies. “I’m confident that this time, a conservatively biased Supreme Court won’t interfere with the will of the people.”

There's sure to be a place for Jesse Jackson over there. We'd better send him right away.

I vote for Paul Begala...and a majority of the "journalists" on CNN. Michael Moore should also go so that he could find something else to biiiaatch about!
