More than 133,000 votes remain uncounted in Ohio, more than George W. Bush's supposed margin of victory. In New Mexico, the uncounted vote totals at least three times the president's plurality -- and so on in other states...(more)

4. Of course we do. Smell the coffee!

And I'm really grateful to the Black Caucus to hang in with us, now that we have ALL been disenfranchised.
