1. Nothing can be done until Comey's ass is booted off the information he's sitting on

Congress might not be in as much of the dark as we are, but the cult of secrecy is reigning supreme in Washington.

[KittyWampus]

4. Comey's ass might be the one thing keeping that information from getting swept into the memory hole.

[Warpy]

6. I sincerely doubt that

The FBI is a huge organization and a lot of people worked to assemble that information. Comey's ass is the only thing keeping the lid tightly clamped on so none of the information gets out.

Remember his role in making sure Clinton was defeated and Asshole got in. He is very vulnerable to being smeared with everything that has been uncovered because he was so blinded by his hate for everything Clinton that he didn't share what he had when he had it.

Remember, this has been going on from at least last July, well before the election. If he were the patriotic person you want us to think he is, he'd have blown the whistle on the fat fraud months ago and kept him out of the White House.

3. his loss was a loss for the country

What's with Wisconsin ? They are electing people like walker but not feingold........

[babylonsister]

7. Manipulation of the votes; I'm convinced something

happened in Wisconsin. I was shocked when he lost.

Lately I'm not so shocked.

[milestogo]

8. He was up by a point a week before the election.

GOP was pouring money into his opponent's campaign. My opinion is that the Republicans have been committing election fraud in Wisconsin since the first Walker win.

11. They are committing election fraud throughout the country as a matter of course, I am convinced.

Bush did not validly win Ohio. I was there on the ground in Cleveland and the SOS (concurrently shrub's OH campaign director) was calling people telling them they were not allowed to vote because they had a brother in prison, or they hadn't voted in the last election, etc, all total BS with targeted personal info, intended to intimidate. And that was just a piece of it.

Look at Detroit this last time, with 800 voting machines not working.

They are IN and we need to get them OUT.

The redistricting court cases are great and need to multiply fast so we get better results in '18.
And secure the voting machines, make em all paper.

22. Great article, thanks for sharing. We need to push hard for change. We could win stunningly in '18

and '20 and never know it.

[Amaryllis]

25. Dems need to look very seriously at this and quit spending so much time analyzing how they need to

change their message.

[jodymarie aimee]

[HurricaneWarning]

16. You are so right.

[Still In Wisconsin]

15. I would love to have Russ restore legitimacy to the State of Wisconsin...

by becoming our next Governor.

[Lucinda]

20. KNR Thank you!

[Amaryllis]

21. Russ is wrong that it started with Citizens United. It started with the theft of the 2000

and 2004 elections which then gave us the Bush SCOTUS which then gave us Citizens United and the gutting of the Voting Rights Act in 2013. THere was massive voter suppression in both those elections as well as machine issues, aided by Katherine Harris, FL SOS in 2000 and Ken Blackwell, OH SOS in 2004, both repub SOS involved in the Bush campaign.

[aikoaiko]

23. Thank you. I signed up and I'm interested.

26. I think he won and the election results were shifted in johnsons favor

Johnson got more votes than thump in Wisconsin. If you look at the results they smell like a big dead fish.
