Hell Hath No Fury Like a Liberal Scorned
Canada Free Press ^ | 11/20/18 | Katy Grimes

At this point, Stacey Abrams, Bill Nelson, Andrew Gillum and Hillary Clinton should travel the country as the Sore Losers Tour 2019.

“Sore Loserman” was the insult directed at 2000 presidential/vice presidential candidates Al Gore and Joe Lieberman, known on the campaign trail as “Gore Lieberman.” After losing to George W. Bush, Gore challenged the handling of the Florida vote counting, resulting in the closest presidential race in the history of the United States. Gore’s appeals for a recount went unheeded, resulting in Republicans all across America placing ‘Sore Loserman’ bumper stickers on cars.

Liberals/Leftists are vile creatures. They’re very nasty and without any ability to discern good from bad.

Gore’s appeals for a recount went unheeded . . .

Gore achieved recount after recount, selecting areas where he thought he could get (by whatever means) more votes. When that didn't work, he asked for more and broader recounts that would have prevented the Florida vote from being 'official' until after the Electoral College met. On that basis he would challenge the Florida votes in the Electoral College, demanding that he be made president because he had a majority of the 'certified' votes.

So that line should have been, "Gore's demands for additional recounts were finally denied when the schedule - due to his own delays - ran out."

“So that line should have been, “Gore’s demands for additional recounts were finally denied when the schedule - due to his own delays - ran out.”

Or it could have been: but, despite the best efforts of crooked election officials and the Florida judiciary, not enough votes could be fabricated to ensure Gore’s election.

. . . despite the best efforts of crooked election officials and the Florida judiciary, . . .

Don't forget the media. They called Florida for Gore when the panhandle polling places were still open. Dr. John Lott, statistician extraordinaire, said that cost Bush at least 10,000 votes, which would have made Florida a non-issue. That was actually the biggest scandal in the whole election.

But the topic was on what Gore did to try to get a recount, and in particular the comment that his call for a recount went unheeded. That was a factually incorrect statement even aside from motives.

What is this fool blabbering about?

Gore had numerous recounts and lost every single one.
