1. He's going over the same info in his blog!!!!!
Homeland Security explanation a "red herring".

Photographers could have interferred with the counting - Olberman is saying more votes than voters, way to go, then he's talking about the 3800

And Florida, call for an investigation, representative John Conners!!!!

4. He's connecting it to the optical scanning machines
and the Diebold machines and that they were all predominant Democratic precincts and "suddenly" went Republicans

He's also going over the letter to the GAO and showing that 3 more people added to the GAO request.

Way to go Keith!!!!!!!!

7. How about one of those Kerry lawyers getting involved.
Conyers deserves our respect. We need an Alan Dershowitz!

Corporate America controls the media and we get manufactured news.
Corporate America now controls the voting machines and we get manufactured elections.

10. Conyers softens it seems
Olbermann handed him the questions on a silver platter and he limps through the answers. WTF.. He should have called for an investigation in every state where these machines were used.

Will this story just die off?

We are getting screwed big time.

12. I didn't like the tone of Conyers request to the GAO
it read too much like the 9/11 commission "mission"--to find out what went wrong so we can improve it IN THE FUTURE.

NO! NOW! WE NEED ANSWERS NOW SO WE CAN TURN THIS SHIP AROUND JOHN!!!

Let's write to Conyers.

16. you don't know Conyers
He's the most sly fox in the House. It's his style to underplay in public but go for the jugular through the rule of law.

Nobody diss Conyers. Just watch him and encourage him.

13. omigawd
He covered the story - the whole thing. He spent twenty solid minutes on it. Thank you, Keith Olberman!

The icing on the cake came later: "Too bad O'Reilly isn't as good with math or a brain as he is with a loofah!"

*dies* I just fell in love with this man.

15. I love Keith's interviewing style
It's so nice to watch someone ask questions and actually allow the person to answer. Wow. I'm old enough to remember when that was standard procedure. Thank heavens it wasn't Chris Matthews doing this interview. It would've never started. Matthews would've done all the talking. Conyers was very slow and deliberate in his answers, but Keith gave him all the time he needed.

I'm not too concerned about Conyers' tone at this time. The way to get this rolling, before we have any concrete evidence (which may happen in NH, first), is to take a bi-partisan, concerned tone, IMO. Try to help. Offer to investigate procedures for everyone. Time enough for confrontation later. Once we take that stance, there's no going back. And, let's face it, right now we've got lots of questions and squirrelly data, but no concrete evidence. We have time.

20. As did I.
This story needs to get out, much more than, say, the Scott Peterson trial.
