There are two very different strategies at work.

If Bush were to play follow the leader and engage in manual recounts, he would weaken his position in the courts. Due to the selective nature of the recounts a mathematical bias exists. In addition to this, a select group of citizens are receiving special consideration while the rest of the citizens of Florida are being excluded from the same consideration. The more biased the situation, the more likely the recounts will be defeated on Constitutional grounds. The Bush people would weaken their argument by legitimizing specifically targeted recounts if they engaged in this activity themselves.
