So tell me something...
Why am I watching a democratice state representative from Maryland say the election was a clear victory for the republicans?

If as posted by Bev Harris on the front page, the election was stolen, WHY aren't the democrats fighting? Also which and how many other races did the republicans steal?

1. I think the reaction from elected 'Democrats' that we're seeing....
is precisely the reason the Republicans felt as though they could steal it so easily.

They knew they'd capitulate and do it quickly, and they did.

Sickening.

3. He's making me mad.
I just keep wondering why they aren't fighting back. They should be.

2. From a recent essay by Michael Ruppert...
Even though there is evidence that Ohio was stolen, John Kerry has given up; conceded; thrown in the towel. There won't be any lawsuits because he won't allow it. Bush won the popular vote. If the 2000 election passed into history "as-is" it is certain that the 2004 election is zip locked. Fuggedaboudit! The people now performing that task of documenting electoral fraud in Ohio and elsewhere have safely made themselves historians and targets of lesser priority for Cheney and Rove. They are no longer activists.

There will be no successful suits over this election. The courts are rigged and lawyers are sea anchors. As I predicted a week after 9/11, every lawsuit since filed has been derailed, morphed, sidetracked or sabotaged from within. Any lawsuit over the 2004 election (assuming Kerry permitted it) would wind up in the Supreme Court. Has everyone forgotten Bill Rehnquist's cancer or that the Neocons get to pick the next three justices?

The essay is actually a call to arms, not any sort of moan-fest like this one passage might suggest. Really good stuff, actually.
