1. Link ?
I assume you're talking about the Bush Family Election Night video, but I've not heard about the 'green shoe' ?

Thanks ~

3. someone else mentioned it...
but I forget in what thread...someone said oneof the bush twins was flashing a green shoe, supposedly a signal to start stealing the votes.
I'm not sure that's true, but wanted to view the video for myself.

2. Green shoe red shoes
As anyone seen the wizard of Oz. Funny because of how Karl Rove was lock up in his war-room with all his computers at the time.

" By the time election night came around, Mr Rove was in the White House, where, unusually for a political adviser, he has an office.
He set up computers in the Old Family Dining Room and started tabulating results. He had set up a massive network of contacts, not just in state capitals, but individual districts and precincts to monitor turnout and support.
Mr Rove may spin the news, but the media still wants to hear him
Early exit polls quoted by media seemed to give Mr Kerry the edge, but colleagues said Mr Rove indicated right away that they did not tally with his information.
He used his own data to put Ohio and Florida in the Bush column - bringing cheers from the president and his family when he went into the Roosevelt Room and told them.
And when the TV networks gave either Ohio or Nevada to Mr Bush but not both - which would have led him to be declared as the winner - Mr Rove was one of the president's aides who got on the phone to news chiefs to try to pressure them to change their minds. "
