Remember the random grass roots demonstrators down in sunny Florida back in 2000? Here's a pic of such random, grass-roots mob for you:

This angry mob, which successfully stopped the recount in Miami-Dade County during the 2000 election standoff, was portrayed by the media as an uprising by Florida voters.

Here are the identities of the protesters:

• 1. Tom Pyle, policy analyst, office of House Majority Whip Tom DeLay (R-Tex.).
• 2. Garry Malphrus, majority chief counsel and staff director, House Judiciary subcommittee on criminal justice.
• 3. Rory Cooper, political division staff member at the National Republican Congressional Committee.
• 4. Kevin Smith, former House Republican conference analyst and more recently of Voter.com.
• 5. Steven Brophy, former aide to Sen. Fred D. Thompson (R-Tenn.), now working at the consulting firm KPMG.
• 6. Matt Schlapp, former chief of staff for Rep. Todd Tiahrt (R-Kan.), now on the Bush campaign staff in Austin.
• 7. Roger Morse, aide to Rep. Van Hilleary (R-Tenn.).
• 8. Duane Gibson, aide to Chairman Don Young (R-Alaska) of the House Resources Committee.
• 9. Chuck Royal, legislative assistant to Rep. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.).
• 10. Layna McConkey, former legislative assistant to former Rep. Jim Ross Lightfoot (R-Iowa) now at Steelman Health Strategies.
