How will the VOTE recount put pressure on GOP?

[OKthatsIT]

All they have to do is ignore us.

And with the Dems repeatedly saying, "The recount will not effect the outcome," what sort of message are they sending us?

And then people wonder why no one is showing up at Rallies and Protest.

Its all impotent crap on their part(DNC)

1. That's right. First they ignore you...

...then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

4. Did say anyting about 'ignoring you'?

We are but mere flies to be swatted away when we get pesky, now.

[ClassWarrior]

6. Yes, as a matter of fact, you did.

The exact quote is, "All they have to do is ignore us." That's pretty clear to me.

11. the post 200 election

Gore wanted a recount Bush didn't.. it was headlines daily.. Fox hammered home that Bush already won Florida but Gore won't conceede. People got upset.. the political winds blew Bush's way.. we need to know who is president on Nov (whatever) and not be confused about who is going to be president. Bush was declared winnner.. he won it.. go away Gore.

This year.. Bush is winner.. Kerry says ok.. but lets recount I want to make sure there was no fraud.. I'm not trying to change the election.. here's the money for recounting.. no.. no.. Bush won.. We'll release a report in Spring about the recount..

hey... look.. proof of massive voter fraud.. now lets talk about changing the election.

13. The "it won't affect the outcome" code

Is just a cover because if fraud is found there is no way there won't be a fire/shit storm hitting.

5. And by the way, I'm a Dem, and I've NEVER said...

...much less repeatedly, "The recount will not effect (sic) the outcome." I've always said, "The recount is vital to reform our broken voting system -- and it MAY affect the outcome."

So what have you done to get people out to rallies and protests?? It may come as news to you, but in a democracy, WE're the Democratic Party. When the people lead, the leaders follow.

9. Depends upon what we find!

If our recount is a handcount, then hey! Who knows what we'll get!

[OKthatsIT]

12. You're much more optimistic than me, at this point

If they find 'should've' won? The GOP will just suppress the media. Simple. While the DNC spins its wheels some more.

We already know there's evidence of fowl play on a grand scale.

10. I agree. Few people have the vim to attend "academic" rallies!! n/t
