Not personally, but he may destroy the Democrat's chances of taking over the Congress in two years. Americans hate a sore loser.

Scumbria,

Stick a fork in your man. His only chance is to stall and hope that Seminole or Martin throw out the absentee ballots. According to the WSJ this morning "Lawyers say it is easier to have a court throw out contested ballots than it is to have them recounted and tallied".

Judge "Sally" Sauls just crucified your guy. Hard to see the FLSC change that opinion. The most interesting part (to me) was that Boise and crew didn't prove that a recount could change the result. With close to 10,000 votes that haven't been recounted, and less than a 600 vote difference, it seems that they should have pulled that off. I put that on the lawyers.

Scumbria, <The only way that Gore can hurt his career is by appearing to be a quitter.>

That's pretty much all Gore has left, because it seems he's given up just about everything else in the name of "not quitting."

Heck, even I knew when to quit being a pro-Rambus guy.

Scumbria,

The only way that Gore can hurt his career is by appearing to be a quitter.

That's a glass is half empty kind of thinking. Think positive. Gore won the silver medal.
