Bushites corporations, counting all our votes with "TRADE SECRET," PROPRIETARY programming code, and virtually no audit/recount controls--and have corrupted election officials throughout the country on a bipartisan basis with the $4 billion HAVA boondoggle, lavish lobbying and "revolving door" employment, arranged by Tom Delay and Bob Ney. They have nearly destroyed our election system--with the complicity of some Democrats, and the insane silence of the Democratic Party leadership.
Bush's unpopularity therefore means nothing. The Bush junta is no longer beholden to the people of this country--except in the case where we can, say, double voter turnout and overwhelm the electronic fraud. It's possible--and getting rid of these machines is also possible. But the black hole that the war profiteering corporate news monopolies have shoved this matter into--and the silence of our Party leaders--make this a difficult, state by state, county by county, struggle by grass roots groups and ordinary citizens.
