We cannot allow dead (democrat) voters to be disenfranchised.

and the horrible truth of the matter is that it's probably too late to do anything about any of this obvious and brazen voter fraud.  I keep reading that none of the counties have the man power to deal with it.  it will probably fly just like it is.

Sadly, I suspect there may be at least a few contested states this time around because of it. I don't think America has the stomach for it again.

the state by state numbers have been so close since 04, you could move 30K votes in each of 3 or 4 states, and it's suddenly a landslide.  onbody will contest a landslide.

we may have to face it;  we got had this year.

indeed - no matter what any of the polls suggest, its almost always 48-52% or 52-48% (save for the few 'solid' states..and DC) - in a state with a smaller population 30K would make all the difference.

250 votes in florida would have flipped the election in 2000.  60K votes in ohio would have flipped the election in 2004.

it's obvious that these relatively small numbers have prompted segments of the dem party to break the law to manufacture the required votes.

I just don't see why it's so hard to keep track of voters.  Maybe get rid of registrations altogether and go by drivers or non-drivers licenses?  Once you vote, your number is tagged and no double entries can happen?
What other solution is there? Evidently, early registration is a joke.

while we were not founded on the basis that everyone should be allowed their franchise in our democracy, it has "evolved" to exactly that.  we seem to want to err on the side of making sure that the semi-dead, homeless bum in the gutter gets to vote.

personally, I think that the more and more that the electorate is drug to the polls, the caliber of the electorate declines.

If the Democrats would allow voterID laws to take effect, this would be a nonissue - but they claim its racist. Imagine that.. One person=one vote=racist.

How unusual for the Democrats to make such allegations.

As if the homeless or almost dead really prioritize voting every 4 years ...they have much bigger issues on hand, I'd imagine...food and shelter are probably 2 of those.  The homeless and dead are only used by the democrats for fraud...they don't care about the individual's RIGHT to VOTE, as they say...a bunch of unethical theives....I know, I know...I'm not saying anything you didn't already know.

yeah, hawk.  we usually agree.  we fought over the bailout bill, but I am very close to admitting that I was wrong, and the proper play was to just let the (recession?  depression) rip.  we would come out of it a stronger economy.

I very seldom admit that I was wrong, but I am close to it on this one.

As president Bush was speaking today, the market fell sharply, 200 points in 5 seconds.  Politicians have no business manipulating the market.  It won't work.
But I'm optimistic that the market will rebound and maybe even rally next week...but it will have nothing to do with government intervention and more to do with company earnings, and the usual economic reports.
Still, we're deep in a bear market, market will be volatile...so sit tight for at least 6 months...

Yes, now dead people in Houston are registering to vote by the thousands. This thread is really hard to keep up with.

New Mexico:

ALBUQUERQUE — FBI agents were meeting Friday with the Bernalillo County clerk after she notified them about an estimated 1,400 possibly fraudulent voter registration cards.

The number of suspect cards has grown from the 1,100 that Maggie Toulouse Oliver told law enforcement agencies about last month. Cards have been turned in to the clerk's office over the entire year, but the number of voter registrations increased significantly in recent weeks as this week's deadline for registering for the Nov. 4 election approached.

Florida:

Hillsborough County Elections Supervisor Buddy Johnson said the discrepancy is likely a case of voter registration fraud by a third party group that pays people to register voters.

"Someone from one of these groups probably saw her name and address in a phone book or elsewhere and registered it, thinking they could get away with it," he said.

Hillsborough elections officials have come across numerous other questionable voter registration applications in the run-up to the Nov. 4 general election, which has seen hundreds of thousands of new voters added to election rolls across the state.

This goes on and on, but that last link claimed ACORN has registered 1.3M voters to far - Kerry lost by 2M four years ago, so maybe there's hope. Maybe.
