That's all it is. It is a screen in the face of very lopsided polls behind which to hide rigged votes.

1. What? I'm afraid I don't quite follow you
Are you saying that if we all go out and vote on November 7, that it's just an excuse for the repubs to steal the election? If repubs go out and vote, then it's actually a good thing, in a way. At least they are showing citizenship, just as we are by voting. So please clarify my addled brain on your statement. See, I intend to vote no matter what.

2. Yep ...
The numbers in relation to dissatisfaction are just staggering, across the board ... Clearly worse than 94 ...

Now, for the House, you have gerrymandering, and that is going to be the difference between a 50 seat and a 25-30 seat swing ... But, the senate, it should have next to no effect ...

We will know for SURE after this election if we have a secure voting system ... I live in PA ... Santorum has been anywhere between 20 at most and 4 or 5 up ... Mostly in the range of 7-9 ... But ALWAYS, Casey has led, and Santorum has never broke a certain plateau at just above 40% ... I can tell you for fact, while people are not blown away by Casey, that outside of the 40% "base" people are flat DONE with this lunatic ...

If Santorum wins, it was a rigged election, no ifs, ands or buts ...

4. Yes, "The Dems are so far ahead in the polls but WAIT for the GOP GOTV"
Couldn't agree more.

5. I guess this is the fig-leaf the Rethugs will use to explain some wins--
there has to be plausible cover for the Diebolding of various elections. "Close polls" won't work this time around--it'll have to be "an amazing GOP GOTV effort." THAT'S the October surprise.
