Perhaps Gore should win this debacle of an election. If history is any guide, the next President will have a rocky ride, to say the least. For Dubya to stand up and secede the election to Sawdust Head citing the Constitution and respect for the rule of law and the desire to unify the nation, GWB will be the hero, the stand-up man who put the good of the nation ahead of his own. Gwhore on the other hand, will appear like the spoiled power hungry child he really is.
The next President will in all likelihood be sworn in a Lame Duck, a President who wouldn’t be able to even pass water. The 1960 election with Nixon seceding to Kennedy comes to mind. A very narrow margin separated the two. Nixon took the high road and gave Kennedy the win. For all of the mystique of JFK, his short administration only enjoyed limited success with the LBJ administration pushing through much of Kennedy’s legislation.
With an economy appearing to begin a slow-down, let Gwhore take the heat and the fall. Bush will have the honor and respect as someone who is a true public servant, not someone who’s true motives were made clear through the actions pursued during a time that had the potential to become a Constitutional crisis. The reputation of GWB would be enhanced, preparing him for the next run, while Gwhore would be a weak, one-term footnote in history.
