Scumbria, Re: <Nice to see you weighing in with some constructive comments.>

Perhaps you should speak for yourself, and try to avoid making statements for other people?

It was a question. I'll lay it out here again.

Wouldn't want you to *MISS* the obvious.

I'm guessing you object to:

<<<In fact, reject rates in excess of 35% occurred in Jacksonville area. The Democratic Party spokesmen, however, accepted fault for instructing 'their people' to vote on every page.>>>

This was from a post of mine, and I stand by it.
=========================================================

If you can only teach your constituents how to vote correctly on one page -- well, you have to settle for what you can get!

Or else Dumb down the instructions:

"It should say Democratic - with a capital 'D' where you vote."

'Don't flip back & vote in the same column on the third and fourth pages as you did on pages one and two.'

Don't vote on page two, it's the same as page one, but it's in Spanish.>>>

I consider that to be constructive. You want to get dopes to vote for you, make the instructions easy. What's the problem?

If you have some comments that would be more constructive for center city Jacksonville or Miami, why don't you send them in. I'd guess the Dem. organization has been trying to figure out how to maximize valid votes out of that area for a while -- but I think the work has to start with basic reading.

Please note that the MD(ade) count stopped when they got to the 'Spanish speaking' area. It was no longer 'the people can't understand', and 'the F'n chads didn't break off, but "there is no point in counting" the spanish american voters (who might have had an excuse for not being able to read the ballot) managed to sqeeze out a 4 to 1 advantage for Bush, in keeping with the opinion of the Spanish americans in Texas.

Time for a *NATIONAL* revote?

80% of the land area likes Bush -- hell, I like bush.

But I guess you could figure that out.
