Reply #48: Can't we do BOTH -- investigate fraud AND figure out why Kerry didn't [View All]

[gauguin57]

win in a landslide over a complete incompetent whose administration did absolutely NOTHING right in either foreign or domestic policy.

We can do BOTH. We need to make it "not even close" in the mid-terms; but we need to get recounts of the optical scan ballots (at least), and investigate whether there was vote fraud with the e-voting machines (as best we can). We should push for recounts wherever they are POSSIBLE.

We can build a better party for 2006, AND determine whether the 2004 election was stolen from us. Even if we could prove that it was squeaker-close instead of 3 million votes apart ...

But if all we can do is bicker, we'll never get anywhere. So, those who want to charge ahead on the voter investigation, go for it. For those who want to work on strengthening the party and figuring out what we can do differently (without losing our principles) in 2006 and 2008, go for it.
