Democrats should weigh cost of prolonged challenge 11/30/2000 It's time, Democrats. The moment is at hand for the Democratic Party to save itself by sacrificing one of its own. Even as polls show that a growing number of Americans hold Vice President Al Gore largely responsible for the legal circus in the Sunshine State and believe that the Democratic nominee should concede defeat, Mr. Gore seems to have settled into the bunker. We shouldn't be surprised that a man who has pursued the presidency so hard for so long and feels so entitled to the office would have so much difficulty accepting defeat. Mr. Gore, who told a Newsweek interviewer earlier this year that he would "do anything" to win the high office, has lived up to his word. Given that Mr. Gore has assured members of his party that he is prepared to fight the battle for Florida until his last breath, it is now the Democrats' turn to decide what they are prepared to do. Are they prepared to stand by their man until the last dog dies? Are they prepared to risk the political gains of the last eight years by alienating millions of voters they might need in the 2002 off-year election? Are they prepared to let one man's obsession with winning the presidency further tarnish a political party that should be larger than any one man? dallasnews.com
