Dems lose W elex challenge

BY KENNETH R. BAZINET
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU

WASHINGTON - President Bush's dream of bipartisan cooperation flamed out yesterday when congressional Democrats launched a doomed challenge to overturn his election.
============================
from the POST/FOX same difference:

Schumer, of course, is correct.

There is no evidence of fraud in the Ohio outcome. None.

Certainly there are no "legitimate questions" about the accuracy or integrity of the Nov. 2 vote.

If Hillary Clinton had any, she would have raised them long before yesterday's pander to Internet trolls and others who see benefit in undermining the legitimacy of critical American institutions.

No election is perfectly conducted.

That's not the issue.

Clinton and her Democratic colleagues yesterday alleged — without actually saying so, of course — that November's election was stolen.

And that's simply outrageous.

Here's a footnote with particular relevance to this year's New York City mayoral election: Rep. Anthony Weiner, the Brooklyn Democrat who heretofore had impressed a lot of people with his apparent seriousness of purpose, was front and center in yesterday's panderfest: He signed a letter demanding the challenge.

One would have to be either shamefully cynical, or a moron, to take the Ohio election-fraud charges seriously.

Weiner is no moron.

That leaves shameful cynic.

He also presumes to run against Mayor Bloomberg this fall, and clearly sees benefit in a pander to his party's wacko wing.

New York doesn't really need yet another shamefully cynical panderer in public life.

Weiner — and Sen. Clinton — need to get a little perspective.

It's not always about winning.
