Liberal Media Blast Greedy Gore Politics/Elections Breaking News News Source: Newsmax.com Published: 11/10/00 Author: Carl Limbacher Posted on 11/10/2000 16:40:20 PST by truthandlife Even the liberal New York Times and Washington Post are criticizing Al Gore - the presidential candidate both endorsed - for his campaign's "rush to litigation" over the vote count in Florida. The Times was "worrying" that Gore and his legal team "would announce their support for a lawsuit while the mandatory recount is still going on, and while seven days remain for the arrival of overseas absentee ballots." The Times said also, "It is doubly worrying that some Gore associates are using the language of constitutional crisis and talking of efforts to block or cloud the vote of the Electoral College on Dec. 18 and of dragging out the legal battle into January." Presidential candidates "have an extra measure of responsibility to assure that their actions serve the broad national interest," and the Democrat candidate and Republican George W. Bush both "need to be asking themselves whether a scorched-earth legal strategy meets that standard." "Fortunately," the Times said, "given the Gore campaign's rush to litigation, there is a time window for both political and legal combat." The Post said Gore campaign manager William Daley "took the reckless further step of suggesting in so many words that the election will be illegitimate" if Bush is declared the winner. The legal action Daley spoke of "should be approached with enormous caution and restraint," the Post said. "One of these candidates - the one behind in the final Florida count - is going to have to make a political determination," the Post said. "You have to hope that whoever that turns out to be has in mind the country's interests ahead of his own." Are you listening, Al?
