1. It's Hope against Hope...
Try as might, my heart says to keep fighting, but my head says the Republicans have tossed up too many road blocks....and it's over.
I continue to hope my heart is right.

3. Dude, this is like the first inning of a nine inning game.
The game started JUST TODAY. You don't call the game in the first inning.

4. Not only the first inning
its the first batter. We got a long way to go and besides, even if Bush stays president unelect, we cant let corporate control of the voting process and election thuggery exist in this country.

7. Hell most of that is old news
There was nothing about the letter that Kerry sent to the 88 counties asking to see the 92,000 votes where they say no vote for president was recorded, asking that the voting machines be checked out, ect. Then it says Kerry is in hiding? Hell that is bullshit! Hell even Keith was talking about he wasn't doing a very good job of staying out of things if that was what he intended to do last night on his show talking about it was obvious Kerry had gotten involved. Everyone knows he is in on the recounts, he behind the letter being sent out ect. Nothing said about the hearings from yesterday just the other one before they went to Ohio. I don't know who's blog this is but they are a little off and need to get it updated.

14. Most of this is old to us, but then, we tend to dig for news.
On the other hand, it's been nearly six weeks since the last national fraud and the Dems are still in a bunker. I still don't understand what they're doing besides pretending it didn't happen or that it was Gavin Newsom's fault.

Did all that teambuilding evaporate overnight or what?

9. Repug majority court
With a majority against Kerry in the courts, it's not looking good.

11. This needs to be sent to each news network
with an added personal note:

"Why is it that the media will put all its energy in the Scott Peterson trial, which was based on circumstantial evidence, yet ignore the hard evidence surrounding voting fraud involving the same presidential candidate for the second election? Isn't our democracy worthy of the same prominent, diligent, round-the-clock reporting as a murder trial?"

13. My favorite quote
from the article...

<quote>
Blackwell also reported that 92,000 Ohio presidential votes did not count because some votes were "cast improperly or were improperly counted."
</quote>

So the votes weren't counted right, because the votes were counted wrong.
