1. Imagine that we read of an election occurring anywhere in the third world in which the self-declared winner was the son of the former prime minister and that former prime minister was himself the former head of that nation's secret police (CIA).
Correction. He was declared the winner by the fact that he has received 271 of the needed 270 electoral votes. Let's be accurate Please!

2. Imagine that the self-declared winner lost the popular vote but won based on some old colonial holdover (Electoral College) from the nation's pre-democracy past.
1.  This country is a republic, not a democracy. 2.  The electoral college was designed to protect states rights, it is not a colonial holdover. It is interesting that leading up to the election, democrats were afraid that Prince Al (as the democrats would like to view him) was going to win on the electoral vote but lose the popular vote. At that time the republicans were silent but the dem's were spinning and spinning that the electoral college is the "law of the land" and we must abide by the law. Funny when things do go as expected for the dem's how they can reverse their spin so quickly. Bottom line. IT IS THE LAW!!!

3. Imagine that the self-declared winner's 'victory' turned on disputed votes cast in a province governed by his brother!
Again, let's work with facts - About 1% of the ballots that the machines registered as "no president vote" in Dade county. Prince Al claims that these have never been counter. Reality check: In the past elections in 92 and 96, Dade county showed about 1% of the ballots registered as "no vote for president". In the exit polls for Dade county there were an estimated count of 1% that claimed to not have voted for president. Prince Al would have us believe that if the ballot is punched for democrats but only a scratch on the card (note a scratch that only a democrat canvassing board member can see) means a vote for Prince Al. However, the truth is the only ballots that have not been counted in Florida, are the thousands of Military absentee ballots that the democrat "mob" has managed to get rejected PRIOR to any count.

4. Imagine that the poorly drafted ballots of one district, a district heavily favoring the self-declared winner's opponent, led thousands of voters to vote for the wrong candidate.
A Ballot designed by the losing candidates party members, approved by the losing candidates party and campaign staff, and is the same ballot layout used in that county in 1996 without complaint, and is the same ballot that when given to 4 grade children 98% were able to figure it out.  Finally, if a ballot is a secret vote, and that once cast cannot be traced back to the individual voter, how the  ^#$% can the dem's claim that these people knew they voted for the wrong person? If they knew they made a mistake, the "CONFUSING BALLOT" had these strange words on it along with signs in the polling place, that the voter could request a new ballot.
5. Imagine that members of that nation's most despised caste, fearing for their lives/livelihoods, turned out in record numbers to vote in near-universal opposition to the self-declared winner's candidacy.
This item makes no sense at all except it does echo the words of who has to be the writers greatest hero  Vladimir Iljitsh Uljanov (Lenin). 
 
6. Imagine that state police operating under the authority of the self-declared winner's brother intercepted hundreds of members of that most-despised caste on their way to the polls. 
 see answer to item 5 above. i.e. BULL@@$#$ 

7. Imagine that six million people voted in the disputed province and that the self-declared winner's 'lead' was only 327 votes. Fewer, certainly, than the vote counting machines' margin of error. 
 and even after a recount, and hand recount with democrat operatives managing the hand recount still had the legally declared winner as the winner.
 
8. Imagine that the self-declared winner and his political party opposed a more careful by-hand inspection and re-counting of the ballots in the disputed province or in its most hotly disputed district.
You know it is interesting that people who claim some level of intelligence can not see the vote engineering that was attempted by democrat operatives in some counties in an attempt to STEAL the election from the rightful winner. We have had a count, a recount, a re recount, and the same guy won each time. Al lost. GET OVER IT!!!!!
 
9. Imagine that the self-declared winner, himself a governor of a major province, had the worst human rights record of any province in his nation and actually led the nation in executions.
This statement is beneath contempt.

10. Imagine that a major campaign promise of the self-declared winner was to appoint like-minded human rights violators to lifetime positions on the high court of that nation.  
 See answer to 9 Above. The winner of this election has a PROVEN track record of bridging the gulf between the two parties better than any other Governor. This claim was made by Democrat officials of the state where the President Elect is Governor. The current President and Vice President of the country have a record as causing the most partisan wrangling, bickering, and politics of personal destruction in the history of this nation. I guess that is a record to be proud of. Not to mention - National secrets lost to communist nations. Depletion of the national defense armaments. Gutting of the military. (What a great bunch of people to follow) 
 
Did I mention that the former Secretary of Labor for the current administration has told Prince Al "it's over, you lost, concede."
 
None of us would deem such an election to be representative of
anything other than the self-declared winner's will-to-power. 
 Look back in history, and in this current election, the one continuing the fight when everything shows that you have lost is the selfish one with the will-to-power. Senator Ashcroft had more reasons to contest the election than Prince Al, but for the good of the nation did not. Richard Nixon had just as much right as Prince Al to contest, but for the good of the nation did not. Al Gore may be many things, but history will prove that Statesman is not one of them.
All of us, I
imagine, would wearily turn the page thinking that it was another sad tale of
pitiful pre- or anti-democracy peoples in some strange
elsewhere."
No this is proof, that all the spin, and all the attempts to thwart the system, the checks and balances put into the system by those, how did you put it, Old Colonials, is there because they knew the hubris of some ego maniacal sociopath like Prince Al and is misguided minions.
