Wrong - Drudge has Gore the winner!

Does Gore being the "real" winner mean I can post again on the Free Republic?

Hey Tuco-bad, you're breaking your promise again.

Since when did a liberal like you hold Drudge in higher authority over CNN? (Not that he isn't... but even a broken watch is right twice a day)

...Drudge has Gore the winner! ...

Drudge has always had a bug up his butt as far as Bush is concerned, I always consider the source.

Only a moron or a liar would say that Gore was the real winner after witnessing the election 2000 fiasco...perhaps drugs could be blamed, or mental illness, but that's it. Sorry.

From AP:

Associated Press

"Gore never did press in court for a full recount, and the strategy he followed to seek the undervotes alone statewide likely would not have benefited him. When the consortium tabulations tried to recreate the partial recounts Gore did pursue, those two scenarios kept Bush ahead:

If Gore had been successful in his initial efforts for recounts of all ballots in the predominantly Democratic counties of Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, Broward and Volusia. Bush by 225.

If the state Supreme Court-ordered recount on Dec. 9 had not been stopped by the U.S. Supreme Court. The review considered this scenario under two different criteria and either way Bush stayed on top, by either 430 votes or 493.

In the review of the state's disputed ballots, Gore edged ahead under all the scenarios for counting all undervotes and overvotes statewide."

In other words, the only way Gore could come out ahead was by assigning ballots punched for more than one candidate to Gore. This is something which would be patently illegal and was not even contemplated. Nobody even talked about doing that. Why are they even counting those? Cause they're trying to say that Gore was the real winner. Plus there's the hundreds of military ballots that Gore got thrown out but which would have been restored.

Can ya read, lad? (I'm watchin' an Irish movie as I write this.) If ya can read, ya know that Gore was buggered by his own solicitors. If he'd gotten the full recount he wanted in jus' four counties, he would STILL HAVE LOST?

Another line from the Irish movie, "Are you thick, Tuco?"

Or, to paraphrase Forrest Gump, "Stupid is as stupid posts." Why don't ya jus' go awah til ya grow up? Take ya time. It might'n be quick. but we'll wait fer ya.

Nice try, but according to CNN (and of course what was obvious all along to anyone with a brain), "However, the double votes on both butterfly and caterpillar ballots were clearly invalid under any interpretation of the law."

Drudge's article says that Gore wins only if they count the above-referenced ballots. We could have saved the consortium a lot of time and money.

LOL! Haven't seen you around for a long time. Anyways, CNN has already embarrassed Drudge tonight by airing the report, concluding that Bush wins under virtually every scenario except some whacky fantasy scenario in which Gore wins by 171 votes. And this is exactly the way CNN spun it. Nothing to see here - - move along.

It will be funny to see how many newspapers get suckered into putting this yawner story on their front page.
