It looks like Teresa Heinz Kerry is rubbing off on her husband. And on Sen. Hillary Clinton. For the Republican Party, this is a very good thing.

You'll recall that last month, Mrs. Heinz Kerry put on her shiniest tinfoil hat and blamed the Democrats' loss in November on rigged voting machines. As reported in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Mrs. Heinz Kerry openly questioned the election results and fixated on areas of the country where optical scanners were used to record votes.

Major barf alert. It's too late for Kerry now, but I will say it anyway...he should keep his wife quiet, if that is possible. Each time she speaks in public, her I.Q. drops...

They are, however, irrefutable proof that the exit polls were screwy.

Nobody in the DU kook circuit has ever explained to me how exit poll samples of the total vote can be more accurate than the final tally of the total vote itself.
