T-minus 24 hours to the EV certification - Predictions?
Here's mine - crickets, perhaps a breeze rolling some tumbleweed, and maybe a saloon door creaking.

I hope I'm wrong.

3. From Bartcop's Dec. 29 page:
DC Rumor Mill

There will supposedly be a senator to back up Maxine Waters this time
and rumor has it - the senator is a Republican!


He doesn't say where he picked up on this rumor. Interesting, though.

4. What I want to happen?
A Senator or two (preferably one from each party) come forward to join Conyers. Vote is not ratified, debate and discussion ensue, and the election process is improved.

What will happen? More of the same. Corporate media running around with brown on their noses and the American sheeple frimly planted in their Wally World lives, with their false gods and stupid yellow ribbon magnets.

5. I think we all
want the same thing to happen. What I think will happen is no Senator will stand up and vote will be certified without any problem. And tomorrow night, Fox, MSNBC and CNN will cover it ad nauseum!

6. Yeah I know. But I wanted to dream for a sentence or two.
We are all pretty much one of a feather here...just thought I'd state the obvious.

7. Well, supposedly Senator Boxer is going to stand with Conyers
She's sending out a press release and everything. There's a thread in LBN about it, quoting MSNBC.
