Correct, he basically said "look, according to ECA, this ain't my job... you assholes do your job." Indeed, the "invasion" into the building itself started right as the first objection to a state certificate was levied. And yes, after everything got settled, all of the prescripted "WoRsT DaY iN hiStORy OmG PeArL HaRBoR!" speeches were made and the objections immediately rejected. Had the "break in" not disrupted the proceedings, would a legitimate, thorough objection process have been conducted? Doubtful. Would have all likely been the same bullshit as prior Dem challenges after Bush's election.
