* "ANNALS OF BAD ADVICE. Last night on Larry King Live, guest David Gergen asked his fellow guests, Bob Kerrey and Mark Racicot, a question:
Are you prepared if your side is on the losing side of what appears to be the vote but there are many legal challenges that you wish to file, would you be prepared to tell your candidate go ahead and file the charges but let's make sure we get this over before January 20 so the next president can be sworn in? Could you tell your candidate to stop and drop the lawsuits if you're on the losing side but you think you had the election stolen from you?
Racicot, smartly, dodged the question, and said basically that he doesn’t think there will be a need for litigation but that he can’t give an answer at this point without knowing how the specific situation unfolds. Then Kerrey answered:
KERREY: Well, I hope Marc's right. I hope it doesn't happen but my guess is and I don't have any influence over John Kerry and the DNC. My advice to him would be not to litigate.

KING: Not to litigate?

KERREY: Not to litigate. I mean, look, you've got an exceptionally difficult period in the history of mankind. I disagree with Marc on why it's troubled times. I think it's part troubled because of the way the Iraq War has been conducted but it is a troubled time, a difficult time and not to have a president of the United States inaugurated and a peaceful transition one way or the other (UNINTELLIGIBLE).



But I would prefer that I mean if it's a close -- if it's close and there's an opportunity to litigate, I would say to John Kerry don't litigate. Let Bush be the president."


if this happens, democracy will take a hit so hard it will never recover. and mebbe wouldnt deserve to recover. it was stupid to do this last time, and the lesson will be the same in 08. but worse.

it may have been the right thing to do last time, appeasement now will
be a death knell. democracy has successfully 'happened' recently in a bunch of countries under the hammer, if americans let this happen again they probably deserve what they get. and the r.o.w. will suffer.
