Could Conyers silence on the DNC Report be indicative of his response?
I have been checking the Conyersblog site and no mention of the DNC Ohio election Investigation report. Knowing how involved Rep Conyers was in the Ohio election, I started wondering if his silence is a way of communicating to us, under pressure from the ?DNC? Please comment (did I miss something?)

2. Better he not say anything
Just concentrate on DSM at moment.
He fought hard on election fraud issue.
The timing of the report stink
Just when he is on the roll on the DSM

3. The DNC can't pressure anybody. It's consultants and minions pressure it.

Just think for a moment: you are Conyers; you know the truth in person and up close; you've know this since the election. You watch DNC sit on their behinds from election day until this week. You watch their elections institute do nothing from election day until this week. You know that it took tens of thousands of activist responses to DNC to get them to even take Ohio seriously.

Given all that, do you even comment on DNC. I doubt that he'd bother. He probably sees them for what they are, a moribund, consultant, insider driven organization that is more concerned with job retention and longevity than the truth; more willing to drool than fight; more able to produce a graphically attractive document than a clear strategy. Don't get me wrong, this report was 1/2 there. The other 1/2 is vital and missing in action.

This is a very good question. I can just imagine what goes on in Conyers mind or his private conversations. I don't think he spends a lot of time looking at DNC for anything; at the same time, I don't think he's subject to their pressure. He has taken on the */Rove machine from day one.

Thanks Congressman Confers for fighting the real fight.

Plus if Dean works his angle--
Conyers works his
Kennedy pounds Rummy
Dems pound Rove for comments

It starts looking like a FULL FRONTALL ASSUALT
NOT playing defense-- playing offense.
Are DEMs starting to put some points on the board?
Forcing some turnovers-

To me it sounds pretty friggin good for a change.

*Roj grabs his helmet* COme on-- CHARGE !!!
* and runs out of the trenches screaming like the San Diego Chicken with his head cut off*

The will of the people is so strong
WE will prevail against this wrong
Brothers & sisters on our team
Clean elections reform is our theme

Shovel that coal, tote that barge
Aint no task that is too large
We gotta job, aint no doubt
Dont you dare stop & pout

I gotta belief thats pure and true--
in my red, and white, and Blue---
If you wanna join my crew---
Saving democracy is what I do--

who are fighting the election fraud. Very curious.
