Olbermann leads with voting story
And Kerry's dipping his "toenail in the waters."

John Harwood, national political editor of NBC, says the recount won't change the election.

More on Nevada, Florida, etc.

10. Take a deep breath, Faye, this is just their most recent Talking Point
We've gone from "the exit polls are wrong" to "it won't change the election." You know the damage control agenda is in full swing because we've heard this same phrase over and over from all the right wing shills.

You need some comfort, you won't get it from watching dipwad mouthpieces on TV. Here ya go, kiddo. :hug:

2. will if it won't change anything, the GOP should be happy to recount
I mean it will embarrass whoever thinks there was fraud. The GOP can have a big ol' belly laugh.

6. If we keep counting, that doesn't mean the count will change. I think
Kerry, Nader, the green party and everyone else's indent is to PROVE FRAUD AND THAT THE ELECTION WAS STOLEN!

4. Dipping his toenail in the waters..................
why bother John? You wussed out a month ago. What happened to your promise of making sure every vote was counted? You ran, you hid. We'll find another, stronger candidate for 2008. Don't bother dipping your toe in then either.

8. Why does making insuring all the votes are counted
such a foreign concept to everyone? That's what I don't get. Like asking for the RIGHT thing is so out of the norm.

Wait...I guess it is NOW that the Repubs run the country.

14. What are they afraid of?
The more the right protests, the more we know it was fraud.
