INTERVENTION TO HEAD OFF ELECTION LOSS
DASCHLE LAWYERS GO TO FEDERAL COURT AT 8:00 PM TONIGHT TO STEAL VOTES, ELIMINATE REPUBLICAN POLL WATCHERS
SIOUX FALLS – Anticipating a loss to Republican challenger John Thune tomorrow ending his 26-year congressional career, Senator Tom Daschle will seek federal judicial intervention in the election process tonight, Monday, November 1 during an emergency hearing in federal court in Sioux Falls at 8:00 PM.
The hearing will be before Federal Judge Larry Piersol who was appointed by Daschle to federal court and served as Daschle’s personal legal counsel in 1978.
“This is nothing short of an attempt to steal an election Tom Daschle knows he is about to lose tomorrow,” said Thune for Senate campaign manager Dick Wadhams. “Daschle’s goon lawyers will seek to get Republican poll watchers removed from reservations and for voters to lose their right to vote.”
Lawyers representing Tom Daschle successfully called for the hearing tonight in front of Daschle-appointed Judge Piersol.
The Pennington County Auditor was informed earlier today that Daschle lawyers will seek to ban the counting of legitimate absentee ballot requests in Pennington County tomorrow, Election Day, morning.
All Thune's people have to do is get the ruling from the US Appeals court in Ohio - Lil' Tommy is screwed.
What breathtaking audacity. Just when I think I've seen it all.

Sounds as if there is a definite need for recusal here!
Dasshole must carry his little things around in a wheelbarrow.
Drudge has this on his front page. Hope National News picks this up!
If Dasche can get the Republican poll watchers removed from Indian polling stations, he can make as many ballots as he needs to win the election.
oh, wasn't Tiny tom one of those shouting "recusal" at Scalia for duck hunting with Cheney?...What good for the duck is good for the mouse, I would say.
I think the 8th Circuit judges are going to pull an all-nighter.
I believe little Tommy has just cooked his undecided voters geese.... so to speak.
Bush will win tomorrow night and Daschle is gonna be toast, how can thing be any brighter :-)
Sorry, I'm so p*ssed I'm shaking, and didn't even think to do a search beyond e-mail. Just wanted to get the word out and go. I'm heading down to the courthouse now.
It is right, nor is it ethical. This judge should recuse himself or be removed on ethics charges.
Can you spell L O S E R?
But when? Tomorrow after half the voters have voted?
I was suprised that it was not under the "Humor" topic ...
