I don't think he should give up. I think he should challenge it and have a recount. Mistakes are made. Remember Washington State's governor's race? They kept counting until they got the numbers they wanted.
I remember Reps giving it up for as long as I can remember.
Allen hanging on just gives the MSM something to talk about against us Reps.
I still say Allen should get out of their way and that way we give them enough ROPE to hang demselves.
The stupid MSM is talking gridlock and $ocial issues but I foresee that COST of the elections as more WTCs here and abroad.
Hope I'm wrong.
They should wait and see what the canvass shows. Right now Allen is about 7400 votes down, .31% out of 2,367,032 cast. If I was him, and I end up that far down, I'd be willing to foot the bill for a recount if I had to. I wouldn't begrudge Webb doing the same thing if the positions were reversed. That's not being a sore loser, really; a 3700-vote swing is a hell of a lot to make up just off clerical errors, but who knows? If the law allows him to do it, he should do it.
