1. No one said life was fair....
We are out gunned in every respect. Talk radio, Faux News, BSNBC, Roberston, Falwell...etc...etc for another 900 pages. We run our organization on grass root efforts and small contributions. Is it a fair fight.....no.....but life was never fair.

2. Well, there's unfair, and then there's institutionalized fraud.
Diebold will make grassroots organizing- and voting itself- completely useless.

3. Diebold is not some everyday company...
...this company is under contract by numerous states to build touch-screen voting machines with their proprietary technology. The CEO Wally O'Dell is quoted as saying he will do all in his power to delivery Ohio the GWB.

I have profiled tons of companies and the donations of their executives, and I have never seen such unilateral devotion to a party as I see with these guys.

From your comment, it makes me wonder if you have ever heard of this company.

4. Not to mention
the mounting evidence of fraud and the machines TOTAL vulernability to rigging. The complete lack of a paper trail is also illegal, yet a great deal of election officials seem to be in these companies pockets.
