Re: The Defections Continue!

As Vice President Al Gore confronts a ticking clock and mounting political and mathematical obstacles, officials in his campaign and in the Democratic Party say they are increasingly doubtful that he will come up with the votes necessary in Florida to overcome Gov. George W. Bush's slim advantage and become president.

What's most interesting about this excellent article is its source: The New York Times. When the Old Grey Lady starts reporting on the cracks in the liberal monolith, one knows the corpulent mezzo-soprano is about to sing!

But, make no mistake, this nightmare isn't over yet...

They repeated their rallying cry: that Mr. Gore won the national popular vote and that he believes he has the moral authority to keep his candidacy alive.

There is nothing to be gained by being timid. In politics, victory belongs to the aggressive. They should continue fighting. They have have nothing to lose.
