Serious question - Are the ReTHUGs capable of creating chaos

[malaise]

and instability in the US as election day approaches?

Is the Obama Administration and the Federal Govt preparing for this possibility.
It is clear that the only way ReTHUGs can win is chaos and confusion.

1. They create chaos on voting day all the time

Like clockwork.

2. They CAN, but not as much as many fear, I think.

The election will have to be very, very close in order for them to "steal" it.

4. Are you watching Mellissa Harris Perry's discussion on

voter suppression

3. I don't know about chaos but

I hope we have some good people watching the votes as they are being cast.

They will cheat ,lie and steal to win this.

5. Remember the Brooks Brothers riot

6. I agree there is an organized effort to create chaos. You don't all of a sudden have it everywhere

out of coincidence.

David Ignatius was on TV yesterday. He's been reading all the docs they found in Bin Laden's house. He read about how much Bin Laden hated Obama being in power because Obama didn't push the "Muslims are bad" meme like Bush did.

My point, I think it is an organized effort by Al Qaeda, dissidents and protesters to affect the US election.

7. Perhaps. They certainly aren't capable of creating progress.

8. In a heartbeat.

There are so many people with a lot of money who have been doing gawd knows what. The connections that run nationally and globally among the real players, governments, and other groups are myriad and complex.

I'm not sure they want to because it can spin out of control. I don't know if the reelection of Obama scares them enough to create too much havoc. With the stasis in Congress, a pet Supreme Court, and a cautious president, I'm not sure they feel too threatened.

They would like Mittens to be president and will spend a pittance of their real value to elect him. They view it strictly as power and money. The social issues matter not a whit to them except as to move people.

I think they pulled the plug in 2008, but McCain made a hash of that. There were major financial problems, but the actions of people would have been different if McCain had won. I don't think the corporations and banks would sit on their money as the economy sank. There would not be such high unemployment as time passed. Obama got a real harsh lesson because he was unknown and not to be trusted. I don't think they would have harried Hillary this much.

They aren't Rethugs so much as they are those that want to rule the world by hook or crook.
