Chen made the remarks in a campaign rally held in Taoyuan County last night as he once again brought up allegations of a "soft coup d'etat" in the wake of the presidential elections.
Chen stressed that the reason why retired generals would ask incumbent high-ranking officers to fake illnesses in an attempt to overturn election results was because they still have the obsolete thought that the party and the state are one and the same, and that the KMT is equal to the country.
Showing two placards printed with the KMT's party emblem and the national emblem of the Republic of China, Chen asked the audience whether they could distinguish from the two symbols, which are the same.

 Asia Times Online - News from greater China; Hong Kong and Taiwan
As for the high number of invalid ballots, Lee Tseng-tsai, secretary-general of the Kinmen County Election Commission, told Taiwan's Central News Agency that he thought the comparatively high ratio resulted from changes in the election laws passed by the pan-blue dominated legislature last October.
The head of the Taoyuan County local government Chu Li-lun, himself a KMT member, estimates that in his county at least, given the facilities available, a recount would take a month.
And the method he envisioned, delegating it to the county election authorities supervised by officers of the High Court, is far speedier than the pan-blues' preferred method - to have everything recounted by the High Court centrally in Taipei.

Chen Shui-bian, the Taiwanese president, has demanded the opposition Nationalist Party change its emblem, in a move viewed by the opposition to be another attempt by the government to cut the island's connections to China.
The Nationalist logo is a white, 12-pointed star on a blue background, which is the same as the emblem that adorns the national flag of the Republic of China (ROC) - Taiwan's official name - and other state symbols.
Chen said if the Nationalists did not change their emblem, the DPP would push for a legislative revision that would restrict political parties from using the insignia - if the ruling party and its allies win a majority of parliament seats.
