I have lost faith in the Democratic Party and figure if you aren't in it till the last vote is counted, you don't deserve my vote. John Kerry is a wimp. I'll be going Green.
No, he's not a wimp. It's just that in the states that still weren't called, there weren't enough votes left for him to win even if the remaining votes were 100% Kerry. He also has to look towards his own political future. If he had dragged out the count and most likely still lost, he'd have poisoned his political future by angering most Americans. Conceding was the honorable way out for him.
