I may be dreaming, but I thought I read today that Ohio is way up for Bush over Kerry. Do you know?

[blackdog]

Translation..........

It's going to be a lean four more years for liberal hacks and I need a way to keep them sending their kids to Vasser and for them to keep their tax attorneys paid, hiding stuff faster than an IRS can discover.

He'll demand recounts just to fleece the morons stupid enough to buy his line of crap.

[Judith Anne]

Yes, and I can see him making a lot of charges of fraud, too, just to get the courts to delay telling him he lost...

[aimhigh]

The topic of recounts was addressed on C-span a couple weeks ago. The guest said the Dems have 6000 attorneys set up, waiting for any state where the votes are close.

[truthseeker2]

Oh...you can bet there will be voter fraud. They already know that 46,000 New York residents are registered in NY and in Florida. Last year that's the number that requested absentee ballots from on of the states and had the opportunity to vote in person in the other state. Why isn't and "investigative journalist" checking this out???

[BoBToMatoE]

yup. i have a feeling that kerry and the dnc is going to demand recounts/ tie up nearly all the swing states on election night.

imo, the only thing that can save us from this nightmare is a land slide election.

[Judith Anne]

The same reason there's no investigative reporter checking out the forged memos.

[counterpunch]

Florida, Arizona, Ohio, Wisconsin for starters...

First of all, each state has its own laws regarding recounts, many do not have a statute for one at all.

But you missed the point entirely.
I'm saying that those states aren't going to be close at all.
The only states that will even be close are ones that have been traditionally considered solidly Democrat.

[Capricam]

Why haven't they used the last four years to implement a computer network at least between Florida and New York, that would cross-check anyone that is registered in both places, and automatically unregister one of the residences? Why? Because the Dems are in control of that process in major cities, and they don't WANT to fix it.

[Judith Anne]

*ping*

[Judith Anne]

Very cute! ;-D

[Judith Anne]

You may be right, but I WILL bet you that every branch of the military has it's voting processes up-to-date and ready to go.

[COUNTrecount]

LOL ! How's this one for the geometrically challenged?

[LuckyHat]

This is absolutely the STUPIDEST thing I have ever seen. It is equivalent to resignation.

Better hold on boys, this is too stupid to be accidental.

Something is in the wind.

[hobbes1]

The FEC just repsonded.

"Monseiur Jean, Don't worry, it Ain't gonna be that close"

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I doubt it will be close enough anywhere to warrant a recount. Kerry & Co. only wish.
