Grand theft Mexico

Nothing is less becoming to the Left than their whining when they lose.

[bigfootbob]

I heard a replay last week of Michael Medved asking Palast the same question. Of course he didn't really know much...Washington State is in Canada isn't it....nobody thinks your measly stolen gubernatorial election is relevant...yada-yada-yada.

Medved handed him his head after he ate Palast's lunch.

Palast is a classic definition of a mendacious reprobate.

[Army Air Corps]

"Investigate Diebold! Indict Halliburton! Arrest Jose Cuervo!"

They can't arrest Jose Cuervo, he's a friend of mine...

[AmishDude]

I would hate to ever disagree with Medved. He has so much information.

But Washington is the usual model of a stolen election. Delay and keep counting until you "find" the votes.

[MistrX]

It amuses me when the left insists on calling commies "progressives".

[bigfootbob]

Tell me about it, I'm an official in the Republican Party in Washington State.

[Nuc1]

I will lie to any exit poller questioning me. I wonder how many others follow the same plan?

[skr]

In a close vote, every voter would have to also vote in the exit polls in order to give the correct picture. IF all pollsters were honest.

[ApplegateRanch]

We've said again and again: exit polls tell us how voters say they voted...

And I, for one, lie through my teeth to pollsters, as a matter policy.

[Nuc1]

LOL I see I am not alone. Without their pollsters the leftists don't know what to lie about. Too good to be true.

[pointsal]

How do you say "chad" in ditch-bank spanish...."FOOL"

[CFC__VRWC]

They're not even going to wait for the final tally to be announced this time. This is going to get very nasty.

[abercrombie_guy_38]

The last time I checked I discovered there was never a poll that is 100% correct. Never has been, never will be.

[NeoCaveman]

Apparently chad in spanish is "chad"

from radioblogger.com

Mexico election glossary.

*chad pendiente - dangling chad
*chad rizo' - dimpled chad
*chad encinto - pregnant chad

[Libloather]

They can't arrest Jose Cuervo, he's a friend of mine...

I've never really met Jose, but have I visited Montezuma - m-m-m-m-m-m-many times...

[PLMerite]

Maybe we ought to try that in Cynthia McKinney's district some time. Scare the heck out of her.

[Heartofsong83]

Where can the Hollywood liberals escape to now, with conservatives in power north and south as well? They'd better know how to swim!!!

[kennedy]

exit polls tell us how voters say they voted

Exit polls tell us how those voters that the pollster's decide to ask, who decide to answer, say they voted.

Most voters are never polled and most voters who are polled refuse to say how they voted.

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

We've said again and again: exit polls tell us how voters say they voted, but the voters can't tell pollsters whether their vote will be counted. In Mexico, counting the vote is an art, not a science - and Calderón's ruling crew is very artful indeed. The PAN-controlled official electoral commission, not surprisingly, has announced that the presidential tally is too close to call

Washington is the usual model of a stolen election. Delay and keep counting until you "find" the votes.

. . . and above all, insist that the votes haven't all been counted unless you win. Like Gore in Florida in 2000.

[ccmay]

Exit polls don't count absentee voters, many of whom are in the military, or running businesses, or earning a living away from their homes. They trend conservative.
