Comment from a friend... "Dem's will get 'reverse-diebold-ed'
he made the comment today that it would suprise me if the Dems' don't get 'reverse diebolded'.

- the rig is in .. for the DEM candidates to win.

- it will be done very sloppy, leaving (false) trails to DEMOCRAT ACTIVITY

- many races overturned, 'thugs retain control, Dem's badly smeared.

They'll increase the cheat factor to 12-13 percent instead of 8-10.

4. This way, it's Diebold's fault no matter who wins.
Paranoia runs deep.

5. KNOCK IT OFF ALREADY!!!
We are going to fight down to the wire, it's all we can do.
Borrowing trouble will just get everyone upset, and we need to FOCUS on winning by a landslide or two.
FAIRLY.

If that doesn't come off, we'll blow up that bridge when we come to it, but right now what we need to focus on is GOTV!
:argh:

6. Interesting take on things
I hadn't thought of that angle. Hmmmm

One side of me says "nah", and the other side says "ya know, I wouldn't be surprised."

7. I read another post on this site stating that the repukes
either have or are about to mobilize squads of attorneys to contest close elections in several states.

I don't remember if the poster provided a link to the source of this info or not.

8. They're already filing ridiculous,
desperate challenges to a candidate's validity in several states. In my own former state of Ohio, a puke supporter of the truly nutball puke gubernatorial candidate filed a challenge to the legality of the Dem candidate's voting registration; if his registration is invalid, he can'd be a candidate for office. The two puke members of the county elections board actually voted against the Dem candidate, even though the law appears to be on his side and there's no validity issue that can be determined. This kicks it up to the state SOS office to make the determination, and the SOS happens to be-wait for it-the puke candidate for governor! Never mind that Strickland, the Dem candidate, is nearly thirty points ahead in the polls. That means that Blackwell, the puke candidate, can't put the fix in like he did in OH in '04, without attracting suspicion and scrutiny, so they're using this ridiculous, desperate tactic.

And in CA, the CA pukes just filed a challenge to Jerry Brown's candidacy for Attorney General, with some stupid bullshit about him not attending state bar meetings and, therefore, not being a member in good standing of the state bar which means he therefore can't be an AG candidate. Never mind that they had months to do this and they waited until the very last moment. They're getting desperate because they're too far behind in the polls to be able to put the fix in like they did before and legitimately get away with it.
