Ignore the rightist snickers. Ignore those who would straightjacket permissible thought. We have a right to ask difficult questions.

1. He specifically captures why I can't let go of the fraud angle.
Why is the exit polling "error" ALWAYS in favor of the Democrats, while the vote tally ALWAYS favors the Republicans?

We saw this in every upset in the 2002 congressional races. And now we see it in the 2004 presidential contest. (I don't know, has anyone looked at Senate or Congressional instances of this too?)

4. The paper trail is there but ...
It's not going to be counted unless we (not Kerry or the DNC, they've folded up and gone home) force Glenda Hood and JEB! to count it. Remember the central tabulators are the same, the only difference is whether or not there's a paper record. In this case, we must have made the touch screen scam to hot for them to risk this year so they rigged the tabulation in the optical scan counties and tried to make it all look normal.

5. Modest cheating on both machines =+5% in margin is my guess

the 300,000 optical would come from a "bad" summary program, as I suspect the paper will equal local totals (if it doesn't - they are toast! :-) )

2. Levin at Slate lies about exit poll data so as to dump on Joe Cannon!
But then MSNBC - where the Slate/Levin article is posted- is not known as a truth telling site.
