To: Glenn Petersen who wrote (71991 ) 12/26/2005 9:53:31 AM From: American Spirit Respond to of 81568 Kerry may have won in 2004. Have you been following the unfolding Ohio voter fraud scandals and the Diebold story? Bush stole somewhere between 30,000 and 300,000 votes in Florida. Until diebold is thoroughly investigated we may never know how many. But Bush did cheat and Kerry should have won if the election and campaign had been fair. We also need to investigate who really ran the smearvets campaign. One thing I can assure you, it wasn't veterans. And it certainly wasn't any veterans who weren't lifelong Republican political operatives. There were about ten different levels where Bushies cheated last year, including phony terrorist alerts every time Kerry pulled ahead in the polls. Some were way out of bounds and/or illegal. But "anything to win" has always been Rove's mantra. In fact, he has never won a fair election in his career. Dirty tricks, fraud and/or smear campaigns are always at the center of his strategies. In fact, GW Bush really has no business being a presdiential candidate to begin with. What put him up for the job were tons of corrupt, slick corporate special interest money and Rove's cheating. Bush is a good cheerleader, but that's all he's qualified for. That and fundraising from corporate interests, mainly polluters and gas-gougers. For the last few months before the election I always said it would come down to 2-3 battleground states, most of all Ohio. After Kerry won all three debates I presumed he would win, and maybe he did, but we will never know the true vote count. The exit polls also proved Kerry won. They had Sean Hannity conceded two hours before Bush's "miraculous" last minute come from behind spurt. Same miracle as in Florida 2000, remember? Rove, Rove, Rove. And Diebold. Prison cells should be waiting for them all. This was a coup d'etat, not a fair election. Bushies can't win fair elections.
