<Somehow I never heard Team Bush ask for full recounts.> why would he, when he had already won? <But Al Gore did offer to accept a full recount and Bush declined.> Algore didn't have the authority to 'offer' any such thing. it was a bluff and everyone knew it. <Team Bush had the same opportunity to ask for selective recounts where it would help them. They chose not to use it.> some might say he was taking the high road, leaving the low road of litigation to Algore <Had anyone impartial been running the show, a statewide recount of the undervote would have happened within two weeks of the election. Florida does a horrific job of counting the vote. > yes, therefore we are all held hostage to the horrificness. throw out the stupid fla. vote altogether... come what may. neither of these men should be president, the better man, the one who gave a darn for any hope of preserving an already divided nation, would have conceded long ago. neither candidate is that man. but any one with a shred of objectivity can see that Algore is the man most responsible for the electorama we are in. Bush would have conceded long ago were the situation reversed, and he would have been right to do so.
