Well, I'm heartened to get that concession. I'm sure Bush isn't perfect, I didn't even vote for the man. Still, the winner didn't need to bring suits...it's just a fact of life that it falls to the loser to challenge, bring suits, etc. Some Democrats filed suits first, of course. Bush defended himself with a federal suit.
Sure, you might expect both guys to seek something fair. Still, the machine count was relatively fair in my mind. The loser though, despite his words, has done nothing but seek unfairness. I just have to put the blame for this on him. Gore is the only one who was required to seek a re-count or simply concede. I know the sort of count he's been seeking, and I'll always feel I'm quite fair when I say, HE'S the stinker here, head and shoulders above Bush in that regard.
