This from Jesse Jackson doesn't sound promising.

Am I wrong , or does it sound like we don't have a bat's chance in hell? 5 to 2 repug?



"An attorney for a political advocacy group on Wednesday plans to file a "contest of election." The request requires a single Supreme Court justice to either let the election stand, declare another winner or throw the whole thing out. The loser can appeal to the full seven-member court, which is dominated by Republicans 5-2.


Jackson said he agreed with the court filing planned by lawyer Cliff Arnebeck, who has represented the Boston-based Alliance for Democracy in other cases."

1. Sounds scarey to me

2. If there is any "cynical use of the courts" by the repukes

as another poster described it, I'm sure Jessie plans on raising hell.

3. What?

This ultimatum is a bad idea. It precludes a recount. Is this attorney a Republican?

4. Don't know. I just cut and pasted from the yahoo article.

5. this is the same as throwing the whole thing into the crapper

[saracat]

7. I am not happy with this either. And I was so happy that Jesse was leading

the battle for our cause! Sigh. I hope we are wrong.

6. Repigs worked hard to weasel into lower Gov. Positions

To control the chain of power to cover and protect their scams. America is headed into the rabbit's black hole fast. For the still sleeping numbskulls out there the fun will get bumpy enough to wake, then frighten you. Enjoy the ride snookums.
