Completing the partial recount favors Bush; doing a complete recount favors Gore. (click and scroll down several entries to Hattaway). How that validates this bastard presidency is beyond me. It is as tainted today as it was a week ago. Still, as several have pointed out, it doesn't matter and we have to make sure four years doesn't become eight. Already, Bush has mastered the Reagan trick of screwing the hell out of us and making us beg for more. We need to lean on the Democratic leadership (which unfortunately has become an oxymoron) and urge them to start acting like the loyal opposition that they're supposed to be. Barbara Streisand made a good start along this line. And I don't think the Move On site can be posted often enough, so here it is again.
