:(

I thought he'd be one of the voices in the wilderness.

1. He disagreed with bringing the objection

Because he thought it established a precedent that would undermine the electoral process for partisan purposes. He did recognize fraud as a problem, but I was pretty disappointed.

2. he was incoherent. talked about "a lack of precedent"
would have been better if he had kept silent.

This is not what we meant when we asked him to "stand up."
:-(

4. I agree, I'd much rather he said NOTHING.
I am disapointed in him. :(

6. I think Bush won, but we needed to contest on the grounds that the right
to vote is sacred and something needs to be done to ensure the integrity of the process.

7. isn't he usually?
I've seen him act like a dick a few times. I asked Minnesotans about that a few days ago, but they defended him.
