Agreed: NO CONCESSION. The provisional ballots aren't counted yet
This will get ugly. The question is, are you willing to fight ugly? I am. I hope Kerry & Edwards are b/c a LOT of pressure's going to be put on them to "end it." But with all the challenged votes still uncounted, you can't officially call the election.

With 88% of the Ohio votes counted, it's only a 126,000 vote difference. This can still be turned around. Do not concede anything to them.

3. if a declaration is made
and if a concession is made

then, it's over

no legal challenge, however justified, will prevail over perception

to rescind---again. fucking media. i'm so pissed off. they cannot steal this again. we are fighting for clean voting like we are in some south american country. it's bullshit. the legal fight coming up will be pivotal for the sake of democracy. we must fight like hell. especially if they call it for bush. we must fight legally like we've never fought before.
