Anyone considered that riots could occur??
Seriously, if they try to close the polls and send people home, in Florida for instance, people aren't going to necessarily take that too well. I was watching the Eminem vid and realized that energy is really running high.
All I can say is
KERRY IN A LANDSLIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9. I think that
a lot of progressives are fed up with *, and they won't tolerate being cheated again. I would assume that most of the insurrection would happen in the bigger cities.

4. I think if there are recount battles, courts battles,
then I think the possibility of violence increases. But I sincerely doubt it would happen while voting is going on.

6. I Agree with you 100%.
I remember as a kid my dad telling me that during my life time there could be a Revolution and I think this it is.

7. 4 years ago we saw a riot -- bussed in GOP operatives
Remember the vote counting that was stopped? It wasn't locals -- but Congressional employees bussed in from D.C.

It would be the Freepers who would have to riot if Kerry won.

If Kerry looses -- then -- with the energy in the Kerry crowds plus the continuing unemployment - there could be riots -- I'd be surprised if there weren't.

11. I hope it's a landslide
and I feel pretty confident in a wide margin of victory for Kerry. We've got to out-pace all the cheating from BushCo.
