[the electors can carry out the dities]

Two of the dities I would like them to perform are, GOD BLESS AMERICA and GOD BLESS THE USA.

Attempts to manipulate the Electoral College

I doubt that was the intention of the forefathers, to give the losers another chance at winning.

[grey_whiskers]

“Grassroots campaigns”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

"Roundup Ready"

[KittyKares]

I find this appalling and frightening. How many just plain folks who might be electors can withstand this kind of pressure and threats? It feels like a coup is in the works.

[Maverick68]

If this happens, the streets will run red....

[Baseballguy]

Was this suppose to work at the RNC convention.

[AU72]

Al Gore only needed 2 electoral votes to flip to win and it didn’t happen. In fact 1 Gore elector abstained.

[eyedigress]

They will lose this war.

A list of all addresses is all that is needed.

This is a Republic governed by law.

If that Republic can no longer govern, the people are responsible to keep it.

[eyedigress]

Al Gore could not carry his home state.

[Verginius Rufus]

It’s not grassroots but astroturf.

"Sounds like recipe for a civil war. "

A reaffirmation of why regime change was necessary.

[Gay State Conservative]

So is this to say that we have *another* delicious round of suicidal depression next month in the likes of Tom “I Married Lots Of Money” Friedman?

[Ray76]

> Sounds like recipe for a civil war.

Guaranteed.

[metmom]

Online petitions are meaningless.

Anyone can go through a phone book and pull out names to *sign*.

[metmom]

So whatever happened to *You must accept the outcome of the election even if the guy you want to win doesn’t win*?
