Jerry Springer, yes as in "Jerry Jerry Jerry" - He may be able to help...
Check out: http://www.jerryforohio.com/

Seems like Mr. Springer has strong feeling towards Ohio and it's politics.

<<SNIP>>
Above all, Jerry believes that most Americans are being left behind in the political debate and that an unusually powerful elitism is running amok in the media and political elites in Washington—and don’t forget the moneyed special interests and lobbyists. There is a vast political & cultural separation between the elites and reality—based people.
<</SNIP>>

He may be someone that is worth contacting, and seeing if he could help with the fight. When the MSM fails you, start to look in other places....

What do you think?

:-)

1. Been wondering where he's been all along.

Yes, please contact him. Tell him your father is your brother and I'm sure he'll respond quicker. :) He was Mayor after all.

2. I would love to see a show dealing with election fraud in OH...
although I would also be scared to see what else he would include on that show... :-) Maybe he can get Blackwell on as a guess?

3. Try Harpo--- But spell it backwards

People that used to be us, are our best voices of reason!

Why do you think the rethugs go after Hollywood so hard? It's because people will listen to them, not because they will be ignored.

Oprah probably would be a better option over Springer...

12. Oprah disappointed me the moment she became a cheerleader for
the War in Iraq. She also disappointed me by not openly supporting Kerry. Just on women's health issues alone she should have been out there in the front. I think Oprah only cares about Oprah's image........

4. Any alternative helps, but most people, including my liberal self
Edited on Wed Dec-22-04 03:11 PM by Zinfandel
see "Jerry" as a joke, a clown and a huckster...And I don't think that's too far from the truth...

However, Springer does reach out (not unlike Howard Stern) to a certain segment of the population, that probably doesn't vote in great numbers and/or are working their asses off and getting fucked over big time, by these republican corporate fascist.

As I stated above, any alternative helps....But NOTHING will help or be accomplished until we get rid of ALL electronic voting machines!!!!!

9. If you want to discredit the "fraud" case
once and for all - by all means bring Jerry Springer in. Then the "fraud" case will be firmly associated in public eye with "biker moms on drugs and their transgender children".

11. Tell him you'll be willing to stage a fisfight with some freepers!
That ought to get you on, like, this afternoon! You do realize the NASCAR crowd that watches him wants to see blood, or they won't watch right?

Seriously, Springer actually is very political. It might be worth a shot.
