So Bush steals the White House again. What do you think the Dems will do?

[genius]

A number of us believe Bush knew about 9-11 in advance and was counting on it to increase his popularity. To those of us who believe that, that's 3000 Americans he was willing to sacrifice for popularity, money and power. Virtually all of us believe Gore won in 2000 and that Bush stole the White House anyway. I believe there is no way, he will let the Democrats retake power. That means he'll cheat, kill, declare martial law or do whatever it takes to stay in power. Suppose he does, what do you really believe Kerry and the Democrats will do this time.

1. i won't vote

the premise is too frightening to contemplate

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

2. If Bush declares martial law...

... and cancels the election, it doesn't really matter what the Democratic party apparatus does, because there will be millions of Americans in the streets, shutting down the entire country until we GET OUR DAMN ELECTION.

I know that's what I'd be doing.

5. And I will be right there with you! n/t

3. Revolution. It's important to note bush* didn't steal anything.

He's not that bright. He's nothing more than the Trojan horse which got PNAC into the White House and the Pentagon. Bush* couldn't accomplish an omelet on his own. The plot runs deeper than bush* could conceive.

4. Attack Nader again (n/t)

7. lol

:hi:

6. if history is any guide ...

A round of very testy looks, followed by a rather unpleasant near-scolding, and concluding with a not-very-nice afternoon of occasional finger-tapping and tsk-tsk'ing. And after that, barring a miracle, another few years of general acquiescence.

8. Kerry supposedly already has a team of lawyers ready for this

But based on what Bev said, his campaign is woefully ill-informed on BBV. Which sort of defeats the whole purpose of the lawyerly A-team.

9. Even with all that's gone on,

the only way I'd see a revolution in this country is if the election was suspended. There are still too many in this country that can't bring themselves to believe that a president could be involved in 9/11.

10. Assuming you mean Democratic politicians..

like Daschle..probably complain a little and then congratulate him.

Hopefully Kerry would fight.

[Disturbed]

11. Whine

Most Dems would roll over on their backs and in whiney voices beg the Neo Fascists to rub their tummies.

12. The Dems will do as they did in 2000...claim the

election was tough on all Americans and we need a period of "healing." They will not challenge Bush, just as they really did not challenge him even before 9/11/01, thinking that the American people have had enough of politics. They will interpret a Bush "victory" as a mandate for them not to fight what * wants to do.

Instead they will blame the "liberals" in the party for the loss and say it is proof that a populist message does not work in the 21st century.

Of course they will ignore the millions of non-voters, believing that neither party is concerned about the average American or are too close in values, who stay home on election day.

13. cower under their desk like before

Why would they change now?

[Solidarity]

14. Blame Nader?

Blame Ralph Nader for losing the election and call him a Nazi?

[bleedingheart]

15. I may go Green if he wins...with the fact that he has so

fucked up this country....if the Dems lose in November I think its time to change the political landscape... Hell the pre-civil war period gave birth the republicans....and they were a hell of a lot better then than today..

16. Run Miller/Lieberman in 2008.
