Looks like the purely partisan NYTimes is abandoning AlGore the Sore Loserman, so the rest of the Dem establishment can't be far behind: THE ALMOST WINNER: How close has Al Gore come to being president? He's had two narrow misses. Remember impeachment? Just a few Senate votes short of installation. Remember Florida? Just a few votes short of inauguration. When you look at it that way, his maniacal ambition makes a little more sense. He has even refused to rule out the Seminole option. You know you're losing when even the New York Times turns against you in their lead editorial this morning. But, alas, Gore has lost the chance to lose gracefully, so he might as well hang in there.

You must understand that Al will do anything to be the president. As in asking for a recount in the 3 counties that had a hugely larger # of uncounted votes than any of the other counties? That is purely logical. To say or think otherwise is just obtuse. And what is it that Bush is doing to be President? Filing the first lawsuit to obstruct a recount the opposing candidate has a real and logical right to request. And Bush followed that up with a lawsuit seeking a stop to the recount in Miami-Dade County. And Bush followed that up with lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit... Let's see...asking for a recount...filing numerous lawsuits... asking for a recount...filing numerous lawsuits... Which would be considered doing 'anything'...? Not a difficult distinction to make.
