I just can't shake the feeling that Kerry was the proverbial "straw man" in the 2004 "election"...he made all of this noise about counting every vote(why?) and then caved faster than Gore and with less than a third of the passion Gore had.

Dean was the front runner until the media smeared him with the (doctored) "Dean scream"!

I support most of Kerry's actions in Congress but for whatever reason, I can't help but feeling he threw the election...exit polls are rarely wrong, and the fact that they proved fraud in the Ukraine should have been enough "evidence" to at least have the election reviewed. The difference in the poll numbers here was dismissed with a simple "they got it wrong"......career pollsters made an error of this magnitude? Not bloody likely.

See how the right creates a little cognitive dissonance, knowing it will paralyze us, while they go about merrily helping themselves to the spoils???
