Will They Steal It?

[rucky]

This poll is not to determine whether they'll try (they're already trying), but whether they'll succeed:

1. I REALLY don't want to think about it.

But I do none-the-less. Abstaining from voting.

2. Man, we've got a lot of PTS from 2000.

And 2004 didn't exactly help erase the trauma...

3. Other - they will try.

But in order to steal it, you first need to know what numbers you will need. They won't know that until the day of - if even then. The numbers of people voting is unprecedented ... and we will win in red states they weren't expecting to have to steal it in.

I think the Republican machine thought Florida and Ohio were going to be major players in this again - but they weren't expecting Dean's 50 state strategy to actually work. Ha Ha!

4. I think they are

doing it already. All this talk about switching votes....it's obvious. Why can they get away with this?

5. no cause lead is to great. will they steal votes..... YES. and they are. n/t

6. Obama is to smart for that. He has been 3 steps ahead for months. I don't think they will succeed

[saltpoint]

7. They would have loved to. A razor-thin election might have

permitted it, but the polling is just way too obviously pro-Obama.

Not this time.

8. Obama will win. I've never had any doubts.

As you say, the Reps are certainly trying to steal the election but even they know their efforts will be futile.
So now they are just trying to make an Obama presidency look illegimate by keeping the vote totals close in some states and questioning the validity of the votes cast. It's all they have left.
