Whoops!
From the Daily Mail:
"Oops! Team Romney accidentally releases his VICTORY website... as it is revealed how he graciously admitted defeat and stopped aides sending planes to contest swing state results 'It's not going to happen', said Romney as aides urged him not to concede Ann wept as her husband admitted failure despite staff to send preparing four planes to monitor recount efforts in key swing states Candidate's aides leaked preview of what would have been the website of President-elect Romney The presidential election was often brutal and bitter, with both candidates' fierce desire to win being clear throughout the campaign. But when it became clear that the race was over and Barack Obama had won, Mitt Romney accepted his defeat with grace, refusing to allow his staff to contest the results in key swing states. Republican aides were about to send four planes to oversee recount efforts in Ohio, Florida and Virginia, but the candidate stopped them, saying: 'It's not going to happen.' But despite his landslide loss, Romney staff accidentally released the victory website which had been set up in anticipation of promoting his role as President-elect. The final desperate moments of the GOP campaign have been revealed in an account by the New York Times, which described Romney holed up in his Boston hotel room at 11.30 on Tuesday night, minutes after news networks had declared Obama the winner. Staff in Ohio, Florida and Virginia, three of the biggest swing states, were on the phone insisting that the races there were still too close to call and urging Romney not to concede. Four aeroplanes were on stand-by ready to dispatch staff to launch legal battles over the tight results, while one of the candidate's closest confidants was about to tell his massed supporters that the race was not yet over. However, Romney himself declared that it was too late, saying 'It's not going to happen' as his wife Ann cried beside him. ........ .-.-.-.-.-.-. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...ite--LOST.html Pete
