COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — One presidential candidate was a wayward
Democrat. The other abhorred politics until he found the party of
just-the-essentials government.

Together, David Cobb of the Green Party and Michael Badnarik of the
Libertarian Party collected less than 1 percent of the national vote
on Nov. 2. However, that has not suppressed their desire to get
pivotal Ohio to count its votes again and expose what they see as
grave discrepancies in the state’s election process.

While they agree on few policies or in their ideas of what government
should do, they have united in the cause of election integrity and
third-party respect.

On Oct. 8, Cobb and Badnarik were arrested after crossing a police
line outside the second presidential debate between President Bush and
John Kerry in St. Louis. They were protesting their exclusion from the
debates. Their cases are pending.

I didn't know they were arrested!

look like two lone crazy guys. Never mentioning the many organizations that are actively helping and supporting the recount.

We're so used to having candidates isolated this way in the media, we don't even notice it. And this in part is what makes ad hominem attacks so easy for hacks like Rove.
