Hillary Clinton makes Ohio stop
Senator teams with Cleveland's Tubbs Jones on voting reform act that would make major changes

WARRENSVILLE HEIGHTS - Before the United States can encourage democracy in other nations, it needs to improve its own process, Sen. Hillary Clinton told an area audience Saturday.
``We cannot be exporting democracy to places like Iraq and Afghanistan when we don't have democracy at home,'' the New York Democrat said at an election reform forum at Warrensville Heights High School gymnasium in suburban Cleveland.
Clinton joined U.S. Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, D-Cleveland, in front of a crowd organizers estimated at 1,500 to stump for a voting reform bill they are co-sponsoring.
The Count Every Vote Act, introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives in February, would require major changes to the electoral process.
Details of the bill include requiring all voting systems to produce a paper record, make Election Day a national holiday, require every state to offer no-excuse absentee ballots in federal elections and allow individuals to register for federal elections on Election Day.
Clinton said the measures are needed to ensure the integrity of the voting process after controversies in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections.

Gee, that's some conspiracy there. They got the local Dems to screw their own constituents. Wow.
How did she make Ohio stop? Stop what? I thought I detected a pig pen like odor coming out of the east.
Make all the rules you want as long as you include the purple ink.
What in the hell is she oinking about?
Details of the bill include requiring all voting systems to produce a paper record, make Election Day a national holiday, require every state to offer no-excuse absentee ballots in federal elections and allow individuals to register for federal elections on Election Day.
Yeah that should get her some votes when she run's in 2008..Everyone loves a holiday.
'require every state to offer no-excuse absentee ballots'
but...but...that would mean that the MILITARY ballots might be counted without a fight??? nah, she can't have thought about THAT.....

And where is the Republican response? The GOP is blowing it big time. At every stop someone from that State's GOP organization should rebut her tripe. Frame the issue properly. Remind the electorate of her past positions. Minimize her at every turn. Add insult to injury by not doing it with a national figure.
I still don't think she can puke this nonsense for the next three years - and still have a chance at the White House.
The Ohio GOP is such a mess right now, it isnt funny.
They need Blackwell to become Governor so badly here....
She is so ugly, she has to sneak up on a glass to get a drink of water.
Her face stops Bill's pendulum cold!
That's why he's in NY while she's in DC.
Gee...from the same mouth that said New Yorkers shouldn't have to produce ID when voting....because it's inconvenient.
You underestimate the power of a compromised media and overestimate the intelligence of the American voter.
DFU says there's some good stuff coming, and we 'd better be ready...
We probably should aggressively agree with complaints that voting is flawed in Democrat areas and that with this situation they cannot win.
No point in them showing up, given this situation.
Look, Hillary must be stopped. Nothing else matters. Not borders, not Social Security, nothing. Rudi has to run for and take her seat in the Senate in 2006. It's the only way to undercut her.

It just looked that way to the people who live there. She's so ugly that when she stepped off the plane, all the clocks stopped.
