So Hillary's not allowed to change (5.00 / 1) (#134)

her position based on the facts on the ground?

We all criticized GW Bush for not changing HIS positions based on the realities of life.  

True leaders change their positions based on the changing facts.   Nobody knew the race would be so close.  Now that it is, the races in Florida and MI need to be accounted in order to know who really won.

Are you against recounting votes in close general elections, too?  Should the candidates in close elections state ahead of time that they won't recount votes, then be disallowed from changing their mind if the election is too close to call? I've learned in non-close races the vote counts are rather sloppy.  However in close races, the counts have to be more precise.  Fl/MI is completely analogous to that.
