Specious results from corporate-owned media polls. Prep for BBV fraud?
This seems like a front version of the exit-poll debacle of 2000. If we are told the Bu$h is ahead by 4-points, and the BBV machines are rigged to give him 4-points, and there is no credible exit polling in place, we have another stolen election. I'm sure smarter DUers (Bev Harris, for one) have touched on this. But it kept me up last night.

i was just speculating on this today. i think that is absolutely true. laying the groundwork, or at least mudding the waters enough.

3. I've been saying it for TWO YEARS!
CHRIST! That is the entire point of the "close race" bullshit. Without paper trails, we'll have NOTHING else to go on except the last poll.

I started telling people to prepare for it in January
And even though I knew, I wasn't prepared for this INTENSE propaganda.

I figured that no matter who the nominee was, they would "Gore" whoever it was.

And I always referenced Bush rise in the polls in 2000 that in NO WAY correlated to his DWI coming out, and his disasterous performance in the debates.

This is just nauseating, though.
It's like watching a love one die slowly.

And I guess it it.
I love America, and I love everything she has given to me.
And I do not want her to die.
Especially not like this.

5. I keep trying to push these thoughts to the back of

my mind and have hope. All we can do is vote and encourage others to vote -- and try to get the word out about BBV. I've already seen some strange election results here in GA, in our 2002, first-all-computer election.
