Please Tiger Paw, can you REALLY imagine Bush conceding at this point under ANY circumstances? Gore gets blamed for having a "win at any cost" philosophy, but the truth is that Bush will stop at nothing to win--seeing nothing wrong with having his FL co-chair certify his election, the Republican FL legislature designate their own slate of electors (no matter what the recount shows), and ultimately, if it gets that far, to have his brother make him president... _______________ Bush should have the decency to concede if he loses the vote.

Re: "Gore from the beginning asked for a more accurate count of the votes." This is, of course, blatantly false. From the beginning he clearly(you can't even begin to argue against this with a shred of credibility) sought only a count skewed in his favor, then blamed Bush for not asking for the same. Such a scenario was never intended in law, and such askings are purely Un-American. WE DON'T COUNT VOTES THAT WAY AND THE LAW NMEVER INTENDED THAT WE SHOULD. Candidates who engage in asking for unfair counting advantages don't deserve to hold any office. Dan B
