There you all go again...blackmail, fraud, all those things have to be proven.Ask Cobalt Blue how hard it is to prove fraud.

I will concede faithless electors are a rare thing in the history of U.S. Presidential elections...but this election is also a rare thing, truly the closest since 1876.

Actually, probabilistically, Bush has little to worry about. As long as 269 out of his 271 stay loyal, no problem. And besides, these are Republican electors, so I am sure they are squeaky clean.
