Scumbria, The Republican leadership never accepted Clinton's presidency, which was on far more solid ground than Bush's. I believe Clinton received only 43% of the vote, vs. 48% for Bush or Gore in this election. So either man will have at least as much legitimacy. I came across a link to an interesting page for the recount: foxnews.com Bush's lead is shrinking as we speak. Oh oh. Joe

Scumbria Re <<Bush will walk into the Whitehouse crippled, from day one.>> This reality exists for Gore as well. There was no great, overwhelming "mandate" throughout the country for either individual, obviously. Re <<The Republican leadership never accepted Clinton's presidency, which was on far more solid ground than Bush's.>> The validity of this conclusion hinges on how one defines the term "accepted", IMHO.
