2) Personally, I find it a sad day when our past 2 presidential elections are fraught with such controversy. I don't think this nation can withstand another questionable election and going to courts. I have lived through 9 of these babies and the last 2 have been the worst by far. The only way to keep the nation from having more partisanship and destructive politics is to just admit defeat, let the election stand and figure out a way to get Congress back in '06.

I think you misunderstand the situation. Appeasing aggressors only encourages them.
The Radical Right isn't interested in politics as usual -- they are interested in winning. Don't underestimate their desire to reach their goals. They want a bible-based American
empire of croney capitalism with two castes: those that earn money from ownership, who live tax-free, and those who work for their money, who carry the tax burden.
One-sided comprimising is otherwise known as surrender. Your political opponents are on a holy quest to destroy and refashon in their own image the economic, moral and social systems that have kept the USA strong. They'll accept your comprimise as an easy victory.
While you are fighting a civilized game -- making the best of a bad situation, they are fighting a dirty war. And I'm not talking about Iraq.
