7. hmmm
i was reamed as a doomsayer a couple days ago...

sounds like 17,000 Kerry lawyers would have known there was no legal venue to press for an action by now...

I'm disappointed by Barney- especially since he wanted Kerry's seat...

this is a battle for enfranchisement... a constitutional issue...

it seems that whether the courts are republican or not, you still use the avenues that do exist to make your case... while cultivating other avenues.

shit. such unbelieveable cowardice. in 2000, it was sheer out-strategizing. In 2002, it was foolish failure to learn from 2000. In 2004, it was staggering incompetence and a lack of imagination. How could we have been so unprepared? To wait until after the election to prove fraud, and then discover there is no legal recourse to challenge it? And Barney, the smartest person in COngress is parroting this crap?

And they expect me to stick around until 2006?
at this point, the rationale for supporting a third party isn't the repugs, it feels like its the dems.
sheesh..
