What were we thinking, did we actually believe Bush could be defeated? |

1. These guys are criminals
2. We have been speculating for months about October surprises, prearranged terror attacks, and martial law, because we know they've invested way too much in their agenda and are in way too deep to just walk away.
3. These guys are criminals
Forget "values" or any other theory of why Kerry lost, this election was never up for grabs. It was going to be stolen no matter what, the machine behind Bush is enormous and insurmountable. The election was purely for show.

For the last four years up until just the last few weeks, I truly believed Bush would declare a state of emergency and suspend the elections.
Right before the election, I started believing that I was mistaken and the country was still controlled by rational people and we would have a real election and Kerry would win. What was I thinking?
I was so happy the morning of the elections. I have never been so happy to cast a vote.

8. Yeah, I keep asking myself |
|
how I could have been so naive.
They didn't steal it in 2000 to give it right back in 2004.
