Zat So?

Here's an odd statement from Concurring Opinions:

When Bush v. Gore was decided in December of 2000, everyone thought it was a hugely significant case.

No, they didn't. Sure it was important in that the Supreme Court took a case dealing with an ongoing (when it was supposed to be over) Presidential election, but as law, I don't recall anyone saying it was significant. In fact, the Court itself stated due to the circumstances it was a one-off with no precedential value.
