Face Reality NOW. This election will not be decided Nov.2 |
|
Harsh truth time. Adjust all plans accordingly.
Rove is running his best game already. It worked twice before. Stealing the election AFTER election day.
This election will go to overtime. Bet the farm on that.
The ground is already laid for legal challenges all around the country.
Accept this now so there will be no gnashing of teeth on Nov. 2. Read the Atlantic Monthly article that lays out Rove's game.

4. Kerry can only win on Nov 2nd by an overwhelming landslide. |
|
And even then they'll say, "Well, that doesn't match the polls, so something must be wrong."
And you know what, something IS wrong. And it lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

5. Oh geez, grasswire...you just voiced my creepiest fear. |
|
I fear that even if Kerry's 'wins' by a decent margin, the slime will ooze out of Rove's drawers. They'll end up using their pal's black boxes to their advantage. Hope for a landslide!

6. Turnout is Rove's worst nightmare |
|
Now is not the time to wring our hands about Rove. Now is the time to get out the vote. The more votes we have, the more impossible we make it for him to steal the election afterward. Bring a friend who doesn't regularly vote with you on Election Day. That's the way we're going to beat Rove and Bush.

7. Yes. They know that the math points to a big win for Kerry. They are |
|
going to pull out every dirty deed in the book.
If they do, I suggest that we surround Washington DC with 15,000,000 people and hold a peaceful protest, shutting down the nation until they are forced to accept democracy.

8. I agree. Both sides are so passionate that they won't accept |
|
a loss. They'll find whatever they can to cast doubt on the outcome.

I think they are trying to "steal it by a clear win" so no votes are recounted.
That's why Bush Gallup is push polling this "Bush opens up lead" stuff.
The powers that be want a "mandate" from the "voters" and a "consensus" on which way the country should go. They want a clear win for Bush.
But I thnk the voters have another idea.

15. Wow, and as a society we are supposed to admire KKKarl Rove..... |
|
....for his animal instincts and prowesses? Show me how Rove has applied these amazing Machiavellian skills to defeating terrorists. Or do the terrorists work for Rove?
