37. EVERY election should have one mandatory recount.
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 04:07 PM by Opposite Reaction
Simple quality control. Too bad you can not look past your own primary enthusiasm to see that transparent elections help everyone and hurt no one, except those who would lie, cheat or steal to win elections.

I don't care about NH specifically, I care about all elections. I don't think you are rovian (despite my snark), I believe you can't put down your primary cap for five fucking minutes to discuss an issue important to all real Americans. So naturally you must attack. And, naturally, I attack back. But I don't think I wanna argue with you any more.

As for me, I am for Edwards in the primary, and for the nominee in the general. But Sen. Clinton pulled in a lot of new voters in NH, and a huge number of undecideds seem to have broken to her direction. Good things for Dems in general, I believe. I have no problem with NH. I have a problem with the state of our election SYSTEM. I believe that all Dems must keep hammering on the issue of transparency. I believe that we should challenge elections as a matter of course. If Edwards wins in SC, I want a recount. Can you dig where I am coming from now?

Remember what Paul Weyrich said!
