We were all sure that Gore was going to win. Until they stole it.

In 2004 we were pretty damn sure that Kerry was going to win. Until they stole it again.

It isn't just a "feeling" anymore.
This year their efforts to steal the election are more wide-ranging and blatant than ever before.
They don't even try to hide it.

OH what a night and the next decade would have been a completely different story. How many of our children and those of Iraq would still be alive?

GET OUT AND VOTE!!

[long-time reader, though I seldom post.]

DU was a bit of a salvation for me then. Also, the only website that stayed up in the moments just after the towers were hit and our only source of immediate information at the office (until I got back home and turned on the TV, of course).
