3. It's supposed to be a provacative question to make him work harder...

...regarding issues in Ohio and what-not. Or so I think.

Remember, this is the woman that threatened to quit if they didn't get air-conditioning.

12. She Knows Election Was Rigged. Trying To Use Airwaves To Egg On Kerry
I suspect that you are right. It's a good idea on her part. I'm all for it.

4.  In what context? Maybe she is trying to yank his chain.
He already is taking heat from the DLC types for being involved at all. I think we may see a different Kerry yet. My guess is he can't stay hidden much longer.

8. Just my gut:
A gigantic game of chess is being played right now. Politics at its most tactical and strategic. I suspect we will hear from him at the single most propitious time and not one second sooner.

This is not a parlour game. This is, at the core of things, the single most important issue in the history of the US, internally and in modern history. The entire credibility of our political system is wrapped up in this.

In comparison, Watergate really was just "A Third-Rate Burglary". This goes to the bedrock and at IT'S bedrock, transcends partisan issues by parsecs.

16. I'm a moderate, but the DLC can kiss my ass
If they can't distinguish election fraud from saving their hides, I don't need 'em.

7. I don't know what Randi meant
But if he takes over this term, he will most likely be a one term president. The reforms that would have to be pushed though if enough fraud is uncovered to overturn the election, compounded with with the mess Bush has left guarantees no one is going to like whomever is president over the next four years.

9. I think she is trying to make him act more directly.
Or maybe just an "ego burst" by Rhodes.

13. Would be great if Kerry stepped up and said something like...
"As you all know, I conceded this election but insisted that every vote be counted. Since that time, serious allegations have arisen in Ohio, and I still have stood by patiently. But now, we see blatant recount obstruction and, as a former prosecutor, experience tells me that people don't try to cover up things they do right."

17. It would be nice to see John Kerry back in the fight with the rest of us

He would put the brightness of all lights on the fraud happening in Ohio.

21. Maybe he threw the election.
Skull and Bones #1 versus Skull and Bones #2 ?

That's too shady for me.

I had to vote 3rd party.
