		        <![CDATA[<p>From the Executive Summary section of the report:</p>

<p>"The abuse of detainees in U.S. custody cannot simply be attributed to the actions of “a few bad apples” acting on their own. The fact is that senior officials in the United States government solicited information on how to use aggressive techniques, redefined the law to create the appearance of their legality, and authorized their use against detainees."</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>I believe hallam is referring to the standards which vary according to state laws.  In Georgia, they had to have a runoff Senate race despite Chambliss winning by a bunch of votes, because the state law requires a runoff if no candidate breaks 50%.  There was a 3rd party candidate in the race, and neither Chambliss nor Martin broke 50%.</p>

<p>However, if I understand correctly, there is no comparable standard in Minnesota, so either guy could technically win by just one vote.</p>]]>
