The phenomenon is called " stereotype threat " - - a kind of performance anxiety discovered in 1995 when psychologists found that black students at Stanford University did significantly worse on intelligence tests if they were first asked to identify their race on the test form.Since then , dozens of other experiments have confirmed that subtly cuing women or minorities to think subconsciously about their sex or race causes them do poorly in areas where the stereotype suggests they are weak . Skilling , who told jurors that he was " absolutely innocent , " is attacking the four-year investigation against him as a " witch hunt " and claiming that prosecutors used unfair tactics and relied on shaky jury instructions to bring down a man who once dashed from presidential inaugurations to conference calls with Wall Street analysts . One doctor said Rehnquist thought he heard voices outside his hospital room plotting against him and had " bizarre ideas and outrageous thoughts , " including imagining " a CIA plot against him " and " seeming to see the design patterns on the hospital curtains change configuration . But on Oct. 3 , 2005 , when he announced he had picked Miers , his loyal legal counsel , to succeed retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor , the right wing of their own party skewered both Bush and Miers.A little more than three weeks later , she withdrew from contention amid the unrelenting backlash , particularly from conservatives , who argued that there were far better candidates.Miers ' resume was filled with firsts : first woman president of the Dallas Bar Association , first woman president of the Texas bar , first woman president of her law firm.She was Bush 's personal lawyer in Texas , took on the thankless job of cleaning up the Texas Lottery when he was governor and followed him to Washington to serve as staff secretary . " They do n't have a plan , " the freshman senator told reporters . The " rare public address " by a member of the U.S. Supreme Court is n't so rare anymore.Just in the past few months , Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has invited television interrogator Mike Wallace into her chambers for a well-mannered chat .

" She acknowledged , however , that the justices probably could have done a better job with the opinion if they had n't been rushed.Still , O'Connor said the outcome of the election would have been the same even if the court had not intervened.She was referring to studies that suggest Bush would have won a recount limited to counties that Gore initially contested , although other studies said Gore might have prevailed in a statewide recount .

Charlie Crist on Wednesday said he would propose abandoning touch-screen voting machines adopted after the disputed 2000 presidential race and replacing them with devices that provide a paper record.In response to intense criticism over the 2000 race - - when a recount dispute focusing Florida 's " hanging chads " and inscrutable ballots was resolved by the Supreme Court - - election supervisors in 15 counties spent millions on touch-screen technology , which itself has come under fire .
