Let's face it, this is a precedent Al Gore and the Democrats set for the entire democratic world: non acceptance of election results. It has impact in Germany, now Mexico. And of course the scheming liars tried to also cast doubt on the 04 US election outcome too. This really is a dangerous game to be playing in a democracy. It leads to division and cynicism about the electoral process and for little more than cheap partisan political gain. It really needs to stop. It threatens the very foundations upon which free elections sit: the acceptance of majority or plurality vote outcomes even among losing parties.

Why didn't conservatives ever get this uptight? We felt screwed by Clinton, but we got even by exploiting his constant peccadilloes.
Maybe there aren't enough such inconsistencies with conservatives for the liberals to ever win using those.
