Well the truth has come to light Gore asked Boxer in 2000 Don't

[lovuian]

I like how Boxer told everybody that Gore asked her not to raise an objection in 2000 and how she regrets it. Because Bush stole it again in 2004!!! I'm proud of her for not listening to them. And I bet Kerry asked her not to too!!!

I'm very proud of her here!!!

I wonder what Edwards is thinking here!!!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

1. why do you think kerry asked her not to?

[bpilgrim]

2. maybe because he's NOT present for DUTY?

:shrug:

peace

5. I think that is WHY he is not present for duty

...so the issue could stay focused on fraud and not that he lost.

[K-W]

8. Kerry is the LAST person in the world who should be making this case.

Come on, lets just think a little here.

If Kerry is making the appeal it just looks like he is a sore loser. This is NOT about Kerry. And we shouldnt want it to be about Kerry. This is bigger than Kerry and he would serve only as a distraction from our real point, that every vote must be counted.

3. The same reason Gore asked her not to

They are protecting their own political fiefdoms. To hell with what is right.

6. Cushy retirement benefits and a great health care plan, paid for by

those who have neither! To hell with them all!

[The Stranger]

4. And in 2000, when the popular vote was Democrat, and the tally in Florida

still in doubt, and still in litigation, it could have made a difference.

If Gore did this, not only did he scuttle himself and his presidency, he damaged those of others -- Democrat and even possibly Republican -- who would follow and face the same voting problems.

Great job, Al Gore.

7. Perhaps they threatened Gore with the

Ukraine tactic. They already started by getting out all those paid operatives and bushbots protesting in the streets. The press was already tearing Gore apart.

Gore was protecting his political future and funding sources and it worked out okay for him.

9. I recall Lieberman told him to withdraw from Bush v. Gore to avert

a second Civil War (Souter sez he was a day away from converting Anthony Kennedy)

[lovuian]

11. It came from her own mouth!!! I was glad to know the truth!!!

There is something wrong here!!!

10. Boxer, Feinstein, Pelosi and others are in my district...

I've said it before; write to your House Representatives (or mine :)) and let them HEAR from you.

I believe our house reps are the "work horses" of the government. I write to Senators also, but my House Reps are the ones that get most of my mail.

It looks as though many folks did lean on their reps as we are seeing them work like crazy today (over the right to vote assembly).

Well done!!
