SCOTUS appointing W as POTUS is exactly what happened, when they short-circuited the Florida recount. The Florida ballots were close enough that a recount could easily have flipped the state and thus the Electoral College to the Dems. The SCOTUS ruling meant that W's brother and his hand-picked Secretary of State Kathleen Harris prevailed however.The problem with your point was that there was nothing to sell.
You are implying that Olsen needed to do a Sandra Bulloch/Miss Congeniality-style makeover so GWB was anointed as the POTUS by SCOTUS. That is not what happened at all.
