I don't care what the red states say: it takes a real man of courage to realize the difference between continuing the good fight and shooting the horse. John Kerry made the correct decision to concede the election to George Bush at 2 PM on November 3rd.
Mathematically, he would have needed a miracle to occur for a victory in Ohio. Behind 135,000 votes and with only 155,000 provisional ballots (90% of which would be approved) and no more than 20,000 recount votes Mr. Kerry would have needed an outstanding majority to even come close to win Ohio.
