No matter what, concession will not happen. Gore will not give in to the media or other Democrats. His feelings have hardened. He honestly believes he won so he will continue the contest.

Another Hitler in the making. You just described a power
hungry, irrational, loose cannon. This type of behavior
is dangerous to the country. Face facts Kenneth, everyone
has said Gore is putting his own lust for power above the
country's best interest. You just described what all have
been saying.

His feelings have hardened. He honestly believes he won so he will continue the contest.

If this is true, then Gore has mentally lost his mind and
needs to be locked away in a nut house. Charles Manson,
Hitler, etc,...all had naive people to use. I see Gore has
his. You are helping to promote a very unstable person.

But Gore’s own feelings, like those of his supporters,
have hardened in the weeks since the election, people who
have spoken with him say. In the days after the election, he
was prepared to concede if he felt the votes weren’t there
or appeals looked unlikely to bear fruit. Since then, he has
become outraged by what he views as the partisanship and
presumption of Republican officials and GOP protesters on
the ground in Florida. And he is more convinced than ever
that he was the intended choice of many thousands of
Florida voters more than voted for Bush.

This conviction has made exit strategies hard to
contemplate. But a long-time Gore ally said they were also
unnecessary to contemplate at any length. “There’s no
reason to torture the obvious,” said this Democrat. “If we
lose the lower courts and lose the Supreme Court, then we
lose.”
