FWIW, it seems that the media tide may be turning on Vice President Gore. What I've seen this evening is not pretty at all. If this absentee ballot issue is not quelled by VP Gore pronto, public support for him is going to evaporate pronto. No spin, just the facts please. My God, using a technicality to aggressively attempt to eliminate the vote of an individual, who, through no fault of their own, appropriately exercised their right to vote absolutely stuns me. To do so against those who risk their their lives daily so I might live free, absolutely horrifies me. (FWIW, MSNBC is flashing FL law - they seem to think FL law may not require a postmark if the ballot is witnessed & both the witness & the voter both have signed & dated the ballot on or before Nov 7. {BTW, when federal law says "OR", then either criteria will pass muster..... both are not necessary.... can't speak to FL law though}) Say it isn't so.......

"...The system has been subverted to the extent that the original purpose has been forgotten, and until just recently very few Americans knew that an Electoral College even existed. The People have been falsely led to believe that they cast their vote for President and Vice President when in reality they are choosing Electors. We are witnessing the result of subversion. And we are witness to the delusion that a President and Vice President are elected by, "the will of the People". We are truly experiencing mob rule, democracy in action, the end result of which is guaranteed to be socialism. The ultimate goal of socialism according to Marx is communism. V.I. Lenin, the founder of the Soviet Union stated, "Democracy is indispensable to socialism." Karl Marx stated, "Democracy is the road to socialism." Both admitted in their speeches and writings that, "The ultimate goal of socialism is communism." Clean your guns boys... we are going to need them. And we are going to need them for the exact purpose for which the Founders gave us the 2nd Article in Amendment... to save our Constitutional Republic. Democracy be damned." ...William Cooper williamcooper.com
