Compared to the Clintons and Gore Nixon was a Saint.

I lived in Washington, during the "Nixon Years" Among other things,
I was a co participant in recieving an award from Mrs Nixon. I did not get any
sense that he was inept, he did however have have the same problem as Clinton
in that his ego had to be a first priority. Nor do I claim that Clinton
is inept. But there is an important difference. That is one of
shame. I saw Nixon's attitude when the full impact of his "cover up'
actions was exposed. He humbly spared tha country any farther agony, and
resigned. Leaving, for me his accomplishments to stand . I see no
parallel in Clinton. His refusal to acknowledge his self serving lies,
and his callous disregard for the nation , are all that many will
remember. I am seeing a similar pattern here on the part of Al
Gore. He and his minions, are the ones that are pushing , what every day
becomes a deeper journey into simple self preservation alone. His
assertation that he wants every vote to count, is pure nonsense. If he
really believes that he should push for a hand recount in every state and
district where recounting of ballots, could change even one counted
vote. There is no ligical support for this continuing farce. It
has now been decided that one lone ( leagally elected Republican) woman in
Florida, clearly following a lawful mandate, will be "second gussed" by 7
appointed ( not elected) Democrat "judges". Well , come to think of it
-- I would say the two sides are about even at that !
