Bland was not speaking of the fate of the individual candidates, but of the larger public who supports them.

Gore and Bush, and their fates, individually mean little.

Gore, for instance, may very well be forced to eventually concede for the greater good of his party, if public opinion continues to turn against interminable petty delays in this process and if his position is proven to be untenable. Personally, he will be thoroughly disinclined to do so, but there is vastly more at stake than his personal will in the matter. Other powerful and ambitious members of the Democratic Party are fully aware of this and will not allow their larger credibility as responsible participants in this process to be completely eroded. Not for the sake of Gore as an individual and his place in history.
