Blackwell:

"Tavis, my message to the good congressman is that Elvis is dead, the Bambino's jinx has ended, the 2004 election results are conclusive. Bush won, turn out the lights, the election is over. We've had over 34 suits that have been filed; we have won every one of them. We have an enormous election operation in Ohio - 50,000 poll workers, 45,000 square miles of geography, 88 counties where we had a record number of 5.7 million voters, almost a million more voters than in 2000, we had a record voter registration drive that produced nearly 1 million new registered voters. We had a great election in Ohio, and I think what the congressman is expressing is a combination of partisan rage and sour grapes."

5. He needs to be taken down.

There has to be a way to take this guy down a notch or five.

Maybe we should ask Conyers to debate him on KO.

12. Maybe the good citizens of Ohio

could find a lawyer who will take him on pro bono in a class action suit over their lost civil rights.

They murder our leaders. Let's jail theirs.

8. LOL...

That from a man whose sole motivation in life is the pursuit of money, power, and screwing over his brothers and sisters. And judging from his buldging eyes, I'd say he eats too much meat.

10. Don't worry....

...we'll all have the last laugh, when Blacknot-so-Well's lies and thuggery are outted.

All of these quotes will return to haunt him.

Let the fool speak even more. His words are gifts to the Democrats.

Soon enough, the man will be nothing more than a John Stewart punchline.

9. Yep. I'm convinced.

Thank you for that, Mr. Blackwell. That convinced us all that you're right and we're wrong. You have made us all see the error of our ways. Since you are such an upstanding and honest public official whose word is unimpeachable.



LOL!!!

11. Why is he so afraid...

of demonstrating to the world just how competently he and his minions counted the votes? You would think that someone so proud of his work, someone who had nothing to hide, would want to be an open book.

Blackwell's snide and dismissive attitude is "Exhibit A" in the case against highly partisan Secretaries of State ever again running their states' elections.

Another really sad thing--- Blackwell probably thought he was being funny.

13. Most stand-ups are liberal for a reason.

Republicans aren't known for their senses of humor, after all.
