While I think Gore should have conceded - for the sake of the country, his position
that all votes be counted is a hard one to argue with.


If this is really his belief, why hasn't he also sued all the Republican counties (about 2/3 of Florida's counties voted Republican) to insist that they do hand recounts too?

His "position" that "all" votes be counted is fraudulent. What his position is that every vote that might be a vote for him should be recounted and re-recounted and re-re-recounted using increasingly liberal standards until his Democrat-controlled canvassing boards can finally find enough votes to overcome the Bush lead.

I read the Boies news conference. Was disappointed that not a single reporter asked Boies "Mr. Boies, if it is your position that every vote should be counted, why have you not also sued for recounts in the Republican dominated counties?" I would have enjoyed seeing how he weasel-mouthed his way out of that one.

But of course a liberal press would never ask such a question, and Drudge wasn't invited to the press conference.
