Partisan..

Do you really believe what you’re saying here..or trying to spin it to make it sound all nasty and evil here..

Lets go over this one more time..since you clearly failed recent US History.

Bush won Florida—won in the 1st and 2nd recounts done..was certified the winner.

All the while..Sore/Loserman began whining about things like chads and military ballots that didnt have a return address on them...Gore whines more..saying there should be a new election..or that he should be declared the winner..just because...

Gore whines to the Florida Supreme Court..to out of wholecloth to create new arbitary, Election standards to favor him..the Florida Supremes decide to give AlGore what he wanted.

Bush then exercised his LEGAL right to ask the Supreme Court to correct the clearly erronous decision of the Florida Supremes..which..by a 7-2 vote they did...

Now..getting back to what occured in WV..Basically..you’re taking the AlGore route now..

Should Romney just be “given” the WV delegates now just “because”...Should their be a “new election”?

The rules of the WV convention were VERY clear.. Candidate MUST get a result of 50.1 of the delegates in order to win. ALL of the candidate failed to do so on the first ballot... A second ballot was taken..people were free to vote as they wished..and Romney again came up short..and Huckabee got the needed 50.1 threshold.

Where is the subterfuge? Where is the quid pro quo? Answer..ITS NOT THERE.. so..again...QUIT WHINING.. go try to win some states...

You said there is no complaining in politics. If Bush team hadn't complained to the US Supreme Court we would have president Gore.

Now..getting back to what occured in WV..Basically..you’re taking the AlGore route now..

No, I said this is Clintonesque. I don't think Romney should go to the WV Supreme Court as Al Gore went to the Florida Supreme Court to overtun a legal election.

Should Romney just be “given” the WV delegates now just “because”...Should their be a “new election”?

Point to the post where I said that.

The rules of the WV convention were VERY clear.. Candidate MUST get a result of 50.1 of the delegates in order to win. ALL of the candidate failed to do so on the first ballot... A second ballot was taken..people were free to vote as they wished..and Romney again came up short..and Huckabee got the needed 50.1 threshold. Where is the subterfuge? Where is the quid pro quo?

My words were "rascals" and "shenanigans". It's important to point this out so everyone can see what kind of men Huckabee, McCain are and what kind of people their supporters are for admiring these shenanigans, no different than the Clintons and their supporters. Giuliani, Hunter, Thompson, and Tancredo had the honor to get out of the way and let the best man win...Huckabee: no honor. If you want to call it "whining", fine...again thank goodness Bush was a "whiner" in 2000 to the US supreme Court or else we would have had president gore in 2000.
