About election fraud in Ohio.

1. Ahm, can I clarify something here:

I am thrilled that we have folks who are able to intern this summer. This is a great honor. But I don't think it would be either right or fair to imply that those good people are conduits to the office and the people who make policy there. It's just not fair to the interns and is unrealistic.

Most interns get a rare chance to learn how a Senate office works and to interact with the professional staff. (Who knows, maybe they will even see the Senator. GV said she went to Sen. Specter's office in DC and the intern who helped her had never seen Sen. Specter. From what I understand, Sen. Kerry is better to his interns than that, but still.)

I am not picking on anyone, just suggesting that we keep expectations in the realistic range. There was a set of stories that ran in the BGlobe this week about a 12 year old boy from Iraq who eventually came to Boston to get medical treatment that has helped him heal from a shooting and from severe leg injuries. That kid came to Boston because someone reading the mail in Sen. Kennedy's office pushed a letter from someone in the State to Kennedy about this child's predicament. The Letter readers at the 'home office' did that. Wow! That's pretty amazing. All jobs are important over there.

Again, not, not, not picking on anyone. But we need to put things in their proper perspective. This is also a defined job that works in support of professional staff who have been there for a long time.

3. What I want to know, and what Mr. Fitrakis does not address, is

who is helping each and every one of these disenfranchised voters file their lawsuits? In what court were the suits filed, and where can I go to monitor the status?

I don't see any place to comment on this article to ask this question.

If there are no lawsuits, out of an alleged 300,000 + incidents, why should I give this allegation any credence?

Can anyone enlighten me?

4. I thought the same thing when I read it. As it is now with nothing to

reference and no one to contact, I have to place it in the pile of unverified claims and possible lies. I would hope we aren't taking a page from the Repub playbook and spreading mis-truths.
