jttmab, sorry I was not very clear in

my previous post. What I meant by put up job, etc, was
that this whole thing did not come about by happenstance, but rather was carefully figured out ahead of time by the democrats. They had a fully designed battle plan ready to go if the vote was close and the plan needed. In this regard, that of agressively fighting to win elections, the dems are miles ahead of the republicans. As al gore said, he will do anything to win, dubya won't. A basic difference between the parties.

Anyway, I don't believe the democrats heard late in the afternoon of election day that some people were complaining they didn't understand the butterfly ballot, and so someone said "gee, lets hire that texas telemarketer to call people in miami and see if they need our help." Rather, it makes more sense that they had the telemarketer ready to go if the vote was close, months ahead of the election, knowing that they could demand a hand count (which they could slant their way) on the basis that the butterfly ballot was confusing. Indeed, that is why they didn't complain about the ballot setup ahead of time, as the law requires. No, instead they smiled and formed a plan to use the butterfly ballot to win, if came down to a few votes. And then they hired Dailey to run the scam, seeing he had the experience. If you want to steal an election, hire the best.

From the dimples to the throwing out of millitary ballots because the millitary doesn't use postmarks....it was all a well designed plan. And they knew in advance they could get it before the Florida Supreme court....seven democrats, imagine that!!!

Nothing the dems do is by accident, and it is almost always underhanded, deceptive, mendacious, and frequently illegal. They cannot win elections honestly, because their liberal socialist agenda is a discredited dinosaur, now resting securely on the scrap heap of political ideas gone bad. There is only two ways they can win these days, and one is to promise huge masses of people that they will loot the public treasury and give them the proceeds if they will only vote for the dems, the other is to cheat, lie and steal. A task they are well trained to preform.

Regards, Moose
