25. Yes, but isn't it nice
that they care so much as to be creative and write their own article. A/P - UGH.

5. Spreading throughout MSM like wildfire
Of course, KO predicted it would if Kerry joined the fray.

Now, we have to steel ourselves for the "sore losers," "get over it" and "it's a waste of money and effort" memes that the MSM will tag to this. We have to show that this was a grassroots effort that Kerry didn't join right away until WE THE PEOPLE proved to him that there were problems, possible fraud and voter intimidation beyond the pale in Ohio.

Start writing those letters before they start tagging us as "the looney left."

7. Now we know why Kerry got out of media light
by conceding. Kerry's request for inspection of 92,000 ballots is all over the news.

10. Wouldn't it be cool to have a president that was smart enough to
pull off a strategy like what we hope is unfolding? Please God...let it be.

16. Yup when Kerry
speaks they listen. :thumbsup:

the song that comes to mind:

"you got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealin’s done."

20. Diane L
I'd like to know when Bush knew as well. And I never did accept that Kerry and Edwards would take this lying down. Kerry, with his Attorney General background & Edwards being an attorney. That combination was just too powerful!

22. I see a lot of wishful thinking here...
The most important line from the ABC article:

Kerry's campaign supports the recount, while Bush's campaign has criticized it, but both sides agree it won't change the outcome of the election.

The desperate and self-deluded will argue that this is the first blow in overturning the election. A more rational view is that Kerry is now asking for some minor counting matters to be taken care of.

In any event, electors cast their votes tomorrow, and that's all she wrote. Anything that might change the course of this election after tomorrow would have to be approved by a) a majority of the Republican Congress, or b) the Republican-controlled Supreme Court. 'Nuf said. Bottom line: it's over.
