6. The Supreme Court is the LAST STOP
so Bush v. Gore could never be overturned - that is why Al Gore had to throw in the towel. The only way a Supreme Corut case can be overturned is to have another similar case come before it ending with a different decision. Congress could pass new law which might just end up before Supreme Court again anyway and the Constitution could be amended why some pro-birth folks are so anxious to have the Constitution amended to outlaw abortion.

All Supreme Court cases can and usually are used as precedents for future cases - interesting thing about Bush v. Gore and what proves IT WAS ABSOLUTELY BOGUS - was that the decision specifically stated that this decision could not be used as precedent.....I believe all five justices who made that decision should have been impeached and removed....but that would never happen - and two of them are gone now anyway
