Can you pin this allegation on Bill Daley. Or are you getting delusional. Also Republicans in southern and other rural areas of Illinois tried to steal it for Nixon.

EDIT: From MSNBC.com
Baker went on to say that Richard Nixon didn’t contest his 1960 loss to JFK. Nixon did concede, but allowed the Republican Party that year to contest the results in 11 states; the recounts and challenges weren’t completed until mid-December 1960. Baker added that Gerald Ford did not contest his narrow loss in Ohio in 1976. But doing so would have been pointless; even had he carried Ohio, Ford would have still lost that year to Jimmy Carter. All in all, an angry Baker looked desperate, a bad omen for Bush

Zoltan, I beg to differ. It has been apparent that Gore has been transparently corrupt and an enemy of the Constitution for some time. JLA

Exactly Zoltan! And I have to disagree with JLA and alan. Bush should fight this all the way to the Supreme Court if necessary!

The methods used and the flip flop standards are enough, in and of themselves, to disqualify the Palm Beach hand re-count.

The people of Florida have spoken in two re-counts without manipulation. And Bush won Florida even with the HUGE voter fraud in Palm Beach.

More statistics later tonight.....
