[DMCForum] Re: Bush (Vote for handouts/tax breaks)

What I am saying is that is absurd to not to be able to say who's the
new president after a month, or whatever it took until it was finally
stated that Bush won.
I don't think hand counting is that effective, human errors are
possible and there is nothing wrong with that. The problem is that it
was such a tight victory that I just can't be sure it was accurate. I
have no idea how much more votes Clinton had in his first and second
terms, but I think it was an easier victory, so no one had grounds to
suspect any miscount, fraud or whatever.
Honestly, after the second count, it was getting ridiculous. In my
opinion, such episode was a shame for the country. What can we do?
No matter who recounted, it's not error proof. I won't state for sure
that it was Gore and not Bush. I do believe we'd be better off with
anyone, but Bush, but I don't have a time machine to change the past
and see the future outcome :)
