That is if anyone goes to jail. Will individuals be able to carry out the dirty work even if the snakes head is cut off during the midterms?

I tell you right now, the FIRST thing Democrats need to do if they take back control of congress is to write up a bill that brings back paper ballots or at the very least prints out a receipt that the voter verifies with a signature and puts in a box. It should be added as an amendment to the Constitution that can NEVER be overturned. With Dems in power I am sure Republicans will be all for such an amendment but it will be up to US to put pressure on the leaders to do it.

1. Even if Rove and others
in the WH go they still have quite a machine going out there. They have spent decades building it. What this could do is give us that overwhelming vote we would need to make it too hard for them to tamper with and maybe even turn the media against them for a cycle or two anyway.

2. Or have Democratic Secretaries of state fix their states' election
If they want to steal the election, then our people who hold Secretary of stateships should steal it right back.
