In the pitched election battle between George W. Bush and Al Gore, someone has to lose. Except, of course, the dozens of lawyers representing the two candidates. For them, even the losers likely will end up winning enhanced prestige and billing rates, legal observers agree. From top litigators to no-name attorneys who have risen from relative obscurity to seize their 15 minutes of fame, the election-battle attorneys are earning high marks from their colleagues and have suffered relatively few missteps. "These are superstars who have done super work," said Haskell Kassler, a Boston lawyer who specializes in election law and assisted the Democrats in the Florida litigation. But a final outcome is sure to bring second-guessing over the legal teams' strategies. On the Gore side, for instance, some already are questioning the vice president's decision not to join in a pair of lawsuits that seeks to throw out thousands of absentee ballots because the applications were allegedly tampered with by Republicans. Rejecting the advice of some of his own lawyers, Gore has distanced himself from the Seminole and Martin County lawsuits, apparently because he does not want to be seen as trying to throw out votes.
