I truly do believe that Gore has endured in this "battle for the presidency", but at this point, he's not making a good case for himself to become the next president. He could have had a shot at the White House within the four years.
Gore could have sat along the sidelines, and campaigned for his issues and worked to get some of his platform enacted. He could have capitalized on the situation for the next four years using multiple platforms.
Instead of taking the prudent course of action, he's now isolated many Democratic party members and those along the periphery. A noble man would have put up a fight, but recognize when there is a better way to achieve what you want.
It's time to through in the towel, while not ending the fight! Gore's desire to be "his own man" (also known as "pride") promises to lead to his political demise if he doesn't exhibit sportsmanship, and quickly.
