No Elaboration Necessary

Peruse the lede of this story and you'll see why:

Florida state officials Monday certified Republican Vern Buchanan won the House seat being vacated by Republican Representative Katherine Harris, though the loser immediately sued for a new election, arguing that touch-screen voting machines had malfunctioned. [emphasis added]

When Democrats win, it was the people coming to their senses. When they lose, they got screwed. Or, to distill it even further, when Dems win, they win; when they lose, they really won, and it's just a matter of shopping for a judge who will "select" them.

Just once I wish a Republican would lodge this same complaint {cough*DINOROSSI*cough}, just for the gaping contrast in media coverage it would elicit. It's not as though they wouldn't just about always have a legitimate case.
