(Former Michigan Democrat Senator) Riegle: Clinton's actions manipulated the ballot-(Soviet Style!)
US News ^ | 14 Jan 2008 | Political Bulletin

Posted on 01/15/2008 12:15:40 PM PST by tcrlaf

The Detroit Free Press reports the Michigan Democratic ballot "is a sham that was rigged by Hillary Rodham Clinton, her husband and her supporters to give the nation the impression that she's the leading candidate in Michigan, an angry former Sen. Don Riegle said Monday."

Riegle said, "What happened in Michigan is not very different from what used to happen in the old Soviet Union. The Clinton machine manipulated the ballot. They don't care how they win, only that they do. It's wrong and people need to know that."

ROTFLMAO! The CLINTON'S? Rigging an Election? Who'd a thunk it...

Who wants to bet that this NEVER makes it on to an Alphabet network broadcast tonite?

Don’t laugh so hard. They’re also rigging OUR election. Because of that rule that allows THEM to vote in OUR election, WE will get stuck with McStain.

Are you still laughing?

This is rich. Coming from one of the biggest Democrat Party hacks that ever was, Don Reigle.

Not surprising, the clintons are socialists at heart. Their heros include the likes of Owen Lattimore, Lauchlin Currie, John Stewart Service, et al. Their goal is to form our government and society into a socialist regime....

Also interesting. Riegle was on the news last night, urging dems to NOT cross over, to vote uncommitted if they support a dem other than the Witch.

Make that throughout the land. At any rate, the Clintons have Michigan under lock and key. It will be a real test for Obama to win here against Bill.

Oh yeah, Mrs. Clinton also ran.

And Hillary thinks nothing more of this than she would a liquor store robbery.

Isn’t “None of the Above” also on the Michigan ballot?

It seems that people are beginning to see that they cheat and are actually beginning to say something. Everyone thought she and Bill cheated in New Hampshire. People are going to think that it’s rigged everytime she wins. There is some serious loathing of the Clintons coming surprisingly from the dems.

Here's a link to a Michigan sample ballot (pdf)

click here

It features choices for "uncommitted" or "write-in space".

Yes. As I said in another thread here, Not only did the polls make voter fraud obvious, but some reporters mentioned the fact that the parking lot at her speeches were loaded with cars with MA and NY plates on them.

Could this be the same buddy of John Mc Cain, former DEMOCRAP Senator Donald W. Riegle?

The ethics committee's investigation focused on five senators:
• Alan Cranston (D-CA);
• Dennis DeConcini (D-AZ);
• John Glenn (D-OH);
• John McCain (R-AZ); and
• Donald W. Riegle, Jr. (D-MI),

who became known as the Keating Five.

Mc Cain seems to enjoy working with DEMOCRAPS to screw the American People!

Mc Cain - Kennedy (Amnesty Bill)

I’m hearing there’s a big abstained vote taking place up there. It’s a protest against Hillary and it could actually make her look quite bad for not taking her name off the ballot like the others did.

My understanding was Obama and Edwards CHOSE to have their names not on the ballot.

My understanding was that all the Democrats voted not to have their names on the ballot, due to that state changing the date of it’s primary.

Hillary then went back on her word {:o), and had her name put on the ballot anyway.
