Why would someone call for a re-count when they won the election?

That line is simply spin. And completely meaningless when logically examined. Can you cite for me ONE person who has called for a manual recount after they won an election?

Gore is the one who lost when he elected to clintonize the process by selecting only Democrat counties. If he would have taken the high-road, and asked for a state-wide manual recount when he lawfully could. He may have had some legitimacy. He didn't ask for it, because he knew he would lose again. Just as he did, in recount after recount.

Finally, Gore has been stalling the process for weeks. There ultimate hope is to get the Florida election thrown out, where the decision will go to the United States Senate and House.
