Remember to call Republicans refusing to concede elections they lose "sore losers"

[andym]

that is what many GOP operatives did to Al Gore, even when the election result was clearly ambiguous. Now Trump and and any of his GOP brethren that refuse to concede like the GOP candidate in Florida's 20th congressional district election this week who lost in a landslide, should be rightly called what they are: "SORE LOSERS."

1. I remember them calling Al Gore "Sore Loserman". But he had good reason he won by over

1/2 million votes and the SCOTUS stopped the count in Florida.

2. Article from 2000 where Bush's allies cast Gore as a sore loser

Yes, you are right, the "Sore Loserman" moniker was used, as well as a chorus about how many times the votes were recounted. And Gore did win the popular vote. There were so many ambiguous ballots, that the results of that election in Florida/electoral college will never perhaps be certain. Post election teams of researchers from national newspapers twice analyzed the ballots, Bush won some, Gore others.

But that election came down to a few hundred votes out of millions cast. When a Republican loses by large percentages, or greater than 10,000 votes in a few key swing states as Trump did, there is no controversy, except ones manufactured by gas-lighting. GOP candidate refusing to concede are clearly "sore losers."
