Anyone here brave enough to take a peek behind the DU curtain?

It appears this waste of time and taxpayers' dollars by the Democrats has finally come to a close.

[My2Cents]

Man I wanted to see Dick give someone the finger LOL

[California Patriot]

What's up with 52 Republicans not voting? That's inexcusable.

[jveritas]

Delusional Bitter Losers.

Somebody's gotta do it. I will.

No cause I was laughing to hard. In the old days I was page for a day in the House of Rep. in my state(pre digital). When the voting would open up the board would click so fast and the votes go back and forth I thought the switch would give out. The chickie would have had a stroke if she would have seen that.

[jveritas]

These delusional losers and Bush haters will never concede.

To make the victory even sweeter, here is a long post from Dummieworld:

Not that we here on DU didn't already know this, but having watched this evolve since election day, and seeing it culminate in this "just for show" debate which is covered NOWHERE in the mainstream media and will be ignored and dismissed after it takes place, I am so depressed about the system. What's the F'ing point of us all putting our heart and energy into fighting this? There is a complete control of power here, and we have none of it. I watch these guys, one after the other, say "sour grapes", "move on", "wild-eyed conspiracy theorists", and know that we won't get taken seriously. Our government has experienced a coup, and nobody cares but us in the minority, and they will not relinquish power. There will be no changes. There will be no reform. I feel it. These a**holes speaking now on the republican side invoke terrorism and "attacking the noble Americans who volunteered to work on this election". They make it seem like we are attacking Americans and encouraging terrorists, and as long as people continue to respond like sheep to these keywords, and our Democratic representatives don't retort with specifics to dismiss that those are the issues we are debating, we stand no chance. I can't watch it. I can't after today. My blood pressure will go through the roof. Do any of you still believe we have the power to change this corrupt government? Tell me, why should I keep actively fighting? I am only getting enraged and depressed over the response to all our efforts. At this moment, I hear some b*tch state "The American people must be shaking their heads at this debate" and "these allegations are without merit". They keep repeating over and over that Bush won by 3 million votes, and that's why 100,000 don't matter. NOBODY questions whether Bush's margin is even true. They say that Bush couldn't have pulled off a massive fraud, as though we were claiming that the man himself was solely responsible, rather than a whole network of people, and probably without his involvement. I want to reach through the TV and smack these people. So, I will remove myself for at least a while after today. I can't take it. It's too personally upsetting. How do you all feel, as my only sense of community on this issue? T.S. Eliot best expresses my feelings: "This is how the world ends; not with a bang, but with a whimper"

Equally funny are the posts that say that the thousands of "I Believe" posts were written because the Dummies didn't really believe the election would be overturned today.

Bush LIED and he disenfranchised 100s of thousands of minority voters thru riiged voting machines and intimidation, he is a criminal and we will impeach him!!!! Hows that, didn't want you to go into troll withdrawl

Dan Rather: "Chaos and mayhem ensue all across Ohio...Republicans refusing to back down...my trusty friend Mr. Cookie-Cutter Anchor Wannabe John Roberts files this report outside a hostel in Cleveland..."

[Nasher]
