I bet Gore is a total pain-in-the-ass know-it-all type to live with....his wife probably has one of those electronic dog collar thingies that spikes her everytime she goes outside of her "bounds". And his kids? Testtube babies grown and Brainwashed from birth, so they dont need a collars.<G>

Yes, I think that Gore will focus on winning the popular vote (although he won't mention it was by 350,000 votes of over 100,000,000 votes cast and that over one million absentee ballots have not been counted) if he gives a concession speech. But I think if Vice President Gore gives a concession speech, he will emphasize that according to the Constitution, it is the Electoral College who votes for and decides who will be President. And therein lies the rub...

If Gore does "claim" victory in his defeat speech....I bet you will STILL admire him, huh?

That is undoubtedly what Gore will say. The true end game in this affair changed about 2 weeks ago from an effort to contest to an effort to de-legitimize. That, plus the fact that Gore is taking the heat to the benefit of other 2004 contenders, is very likely the reason he was allowed to pursue it this far. JMO, though I do think I'm right.
