I head from an O5 a looooong time ago that Clinton tried to essentially declare the 2000 election null and void after the SCOTUS ruling with the intent of holding another election. The Pentagon rumor mill had it that the Joint Chiefs told him he was doing no such thing and they would intervene if he did. Something about the Constitution and all that....
I have no idea if that is true, and frankly I've always been skeptical, but the good LTC was adamant that it happened. It would be neat if there was any truth to it.
