From Sunday NY Times: "One psychological force above all others motivates VP Al Gore as he endures his postelection purgatory: he believes--no, he knows --he won the election, people who deal with him daily say. Advisers and associats of the vp begin and end every discussion of Mr. Gore's state of mind with that declaration. Mr. Gore is frustrated, even at times embarassed, they say, by the legal manuevering he has set in motion in his quest to prove he won the balloting in Florida. But he firmly believes all the machinations are justified by his certainty that more people went to the polls intending to vote for him than for Gov George W. Bush, these associates say... Mr. Gore told one democratic strategist last week that he wuld "fight this to the last breath." A Washington lobbyist who speaks regularly with Mr. Gore and his top lieutenants said that Mr. Gore "firmly believes in his heart that he won the election. And Joe Lieberman is apoplectic" because he believes tha thte Bush forces are impeding a full count of the Florida vote... Mr. Gore is determined to take the office he believes he deserves because he won the popular vote nationwide and because he is certain he triumphed in Florida as well...Whatever emotions might be roiling within him, Mr. Gore has coolly set about biulding a legal team in Florida and directing the legal strategy with the ultimate prize in mind, according to one of his lawyers... Mr. Gore is aware of the criticism from commentators and even some Democrats for his aggressive legal and political tactics, a top adviser said. But he is undeterred."
