I think we saw what kind of man Gore is in Florida. He tried to steal the election. Everybody forgets the morning after election day; James Baker pleading publicly with the Democrats not to flood Florida with lawyers

It is one of the perpetual nuisances of democracy that a candidate who loses an election by .001%, and an election that has been completely f---ed up at that, will certainly ask for a recount. I seriously doubt history will record it as an attempted theft. Historical note: the Republicans ran into court first, in order to prevent it.

You're talking about a man who sat in the Kremlin etc.

I guess I should just hang my head in shame for daring to think that we are paying today for his timidity in leaving Saddam Hussein in place ten years ago, huh? Sorry, won't happen. I still think his policies of bullying friends and bribing enemies will only convince more countries that it pays better to be an enemy.
