That's why Baker tried to goad Gore into taking the issue to the courts in 2000. Baker knew if Gore won via a judicial opinion, his legitimacy would be questioned. Gore refused to take bait. Thus, the Republicans were forced to go to court first. Hence, it is Bush* who carries the stain of illegitimacy.
The Supreme Court is not supposed to decide who is president. That too is it in a nutshell. This is a Congressional issue, not a Supreme Court political call.
