They've lived for four years with the lie of Bush's presidency as being "illegitimate." They are now forced by the reality of a solid Bush win to accept that his presidency is indeed legitimate, but they don't have the intellectual integrity to acknowledge it.
John Fund suggested on Fox tonight that they should go ahead and let them recount Ohio (if the Libertarians and Greens want to shell out the 110,000 bucks).
He said, it would put the whole issue to rest, because no matter how you manipulate the numbers, even supposing all the irregularities, provisionals and absentees go overwhelmingly to Kerry, that Bush still wins.
But I don't think any recount in any state will put the matter to rest. Delusional people will not give up their delusions just because one state gets counted.
On DU right now there's a thread that says all 50 states should be recounted...so counting one or two states will not silence them.
So, IMHO, what's the point of any recounts. Gore spent six weeks trying to get 1000 votes, in Ohio they need 133,000. It's absolutely ridiculous and somebody needs to tell them to grow up (unfortunately Kerry and the Dems have tried, but now they're mad at Kerry because he won't fight, LOL.)
