stop the insanity - stop crying (election) wolf
..then maybe when there really is an (sadly)election bullshit issue with Diebold again (sadly), it will - finally - hopefully - get some traction and coverage... However it won't with cartoonish rants.

The issues with Diebold are well documented here in the past, but something make me scratch my head and McKinney's claims (again) are one of them... and the election day claim is shaky to me. Perhaps I am wrong and we will see something to verify her claims, but her erratic behavior - as much as I love how much it pisses off wingnuts - makes her overthetopness work against her, her constituents, and the rest of the American people who need good Democrats now more than ever.


False claims do a great injustice, a great disservice to our cause... so much so, that we can't tolerate them. Again I might wrong and I am will (and expecting) the replies against this post, but looking at the big picture, this stinks to me and I feel compelled to call for some reason and common sense.

This goes for you too at the Lieberman camp, claiming that Lamont had something to do with your cheap ass website server crashing. Dumbass.

2. what are you taking about?
if you mean the outright theft of OH in 2004, where whitewell provided only 60% of the requested voting machines in Dem precincts, what would you have us do? Should we shut up and enjoy it?

if you're in the "we lost fair and square" camp, you probably are at the wrong web site

3. NO that's not what I said
My point is exactly that the crimes in Ohio become trivialized

5. Then what exactly are you talking about?
Instead of talking in generalities, which is a tactic used by those spreading disinformation, give us some concrete examples of what you're talking about.
