I'd like to share your optimism regarding the sanctity of the people having the final say at the ballot box, but I cannot.

Let us suppose that Forrester beats Lautenberg on election day. Next day the RATS file suit in NJSC asserting that because of the switch, Lautenberg did not have adequate time to campaign.

Do you think that this kangaroo court would again not try to accommodate a "remedy" to this injustice? They would rule for Lautenberg and throw out the election results in a New York minute.

I think you're trippin' on that last scenario friend.

If forrester wins, he wins. period.
Worried about them "stealing the election"?

Get out and volunteer to baby sit at the polling place, take video cams and record suspicious voters... and AFTER you vote at 6am... take all your dem buddies out on an all-day drinking binge... and pay to get them plastered...

Tuck your demofriends safely into bed at 11:59 pm.. and fuggedaboudit...

I am only half kidding. You said you would like to share my "optimism"... GREAT. then just do it. Take all you want. and spread it wherever you care.

This is not sunshine and smoke... We HAVE A REAL OPPORTUNITY HERE... and it can be fun...
do what you can...
