Blame Jeb. Disquallify FLA. Done. Must not let THEM frame this thing. |
|
Let's just cut out the cancer. Jeb had 4 years to straighten things out if it truly was his intent.

the tool to defeat (McBride) was set up for Jeb to blow away |
|
Reno was the real threat, and the GOP successfully drailed her by backing McBride.

9. Yes! I even had an editor of one of Fla.'s major newspaper |
|
reply to my e-mail to her in support of janet reno that she, the editor, would in her heart love to support janet reno but that the polls were going with bill mcbride and that she was going to go with the polls.
now, wasn't that a major cackle??... except it is a sad one.

6. i did too. i also volunteered for janet reno's campaign. |
|
she was hit by the same voter irregularities that have plagued fla. since the bush coons took over our florida soil and that of our nation. the irregularities in her case were not as big as they were during the bush/gore campaign or as they are today in the bush/kerry race. voting machines malfunctioned. some did not begin to work properly until serveral hours later when many voters had tired of waiting and returned home... the bush coons really know how to get their prize. they love power.

3. Yeah, we need to keep heat on Jeb. |
|
Two elections in a row, there are problems with the ballots in the state where one man's brother is Governor. Even the Freepaholics have to admit there's something seriously fucked up about that.
Well, not publicly, but deep down. You know, in the dingy bowels of the empty pits where beating hearts once dwelt.

4. Florida did not cast electoral votes in two elections. |
|
They were, of course, 1864 and 1868. But in the first election, two or more states did not participate.
Point being, THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT THAT EVERY STATE PARTICIPATE IN EVERY ELECTION if they are unable to hold a reliable vote.
Now, that is really more relevant to 2000, because we want Florida's electoral votes for Kerry this time.

7. Too many deliberate attempts to squelch the Democratic turnout ... |
|
I say wait to see what they send up and if it isn't a Kerry victory throw it out. And I don't care how many more votes they might claim Bush got than Kerry. If it doesn't go for Kerry throw them out. If you disenfranchise some you disenfranchise all.

14. Exactly! and the next time he runs for office ... |

after he's caused the whole state to be disenfranchised it can be used against him.
