IMHO if it is possible to commit vote fraud, it will happen.
Regardless of whether it is fake registration; voting in more than one place, casting votes for the dead, stealing ballots, ballot boxes or absentee ballots, causing computer voting machines to "miscount" or report incorrect totals, corruption, bribery, malfeasance, or simply manipulating the size, location, staffing levels, and number of machines available at polling locations, it will continue to happen as long as it is allowed to happen.
Both major parties will do whatever they must, to win.
For politicians, the ends always justify the means.
If people wish to be political activists, starting with the the way votes are cast and those responsible for counting the votes is the place to begin.
There is less than a year to go before the '06 election.
The electorate is largely uniformed and disinformed and has the attention span of a two-year-old.
We can't go for subtleties here. In my view, the GOP candidate, post-9/11 and post-Katrina, would need the following: star power, a perceived strength in managing disasters, war and terror, a mental toughness, a proven record going after the bad guys, an ability to articulate (sorely missing today--the president has virtually ceded the bully pulpit to the Ds).
Put it all together and I think we have only one possibility....
Me too, and my daughter and brother!

Miami Cubans, FReepers, Minutemen all banding together might save us
Right! And Mia is certainly doing her part to get the info out so we can spread it. What the liberals do for a lie, how much more we SHOULD do for the truth. It's not a time for us to live in our usual comfort zone.

"IMHO if it is possible to commit vote fraud, it will happen."
The Dems do it every year, with varying degrees of affectiveness. Expect massive voter fraud in the next election.
thx bump
Good advice. However in my view, the Clinton voter fraud schemes will be sitting out 2006.
The Clintons want a lot of Republicans in office for their 2008 run. They have a track record of using a Republican majority as a foil.
See 1994/1995/1996. Their slime machine stood-down in '94. Their slime machine went into action in '95. Clinton was reelected in '96.
Agreed!
Here are a few: For Grassley, his own home page where he said:
"In September I wrote the president to request additional LIHEAP funds to address what is likely to be a shortage in funding assistance this winter season for thousands of households."
Source: http://grassley.senate.gov/index.cfm?FuseAction=CapitolGains.Detail&CapitolGain_id=311&Year=2005
Also, Grassley said:
"Sen. Charles Grassley (news, bio, voting record), R-Iowa, said in a letter to API that the industry should devote part of its profits to a federal home heating assistance program. It was an ominous note since Grassley chairs the tax-writing Senate Finance Committee"
Source: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ibd/20051210/bs_ibd_ibd/2005129general
Note: API = American Petroleum Institute
Bill Frist:
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., said he would endorse a windfall tax on oil industry "if the facts warrant it"
Source: Same as above
"if the facts warrant it" . . . well, a lot of "facts" have warranted much other BS, like Frist's decision not to go nuclear over SCOTUS nominees.
If Frist were a true conservative and not a liberal, he would have rejected this Marxist view outright.
Santorum (from an op-ed he wrote at Townhall.com):
"Just as Katrina has seared American poverty into our moral consciousness, AIDS has seared Africa into our moral vision. Caring for the sick and dying in Africa now is morally right, as well as geopolitically prudent; if we dont help, someone else will and that someone else may not be friendly to our interests. We need to embrace the challenge to dedicate a larger percentage of our GDP to foreign aid, . . ."

Would his initials be RG?
Isn't HRC's greatest asset that of "inevitability"? Most people expect her to win easily in 2008, and, therefore, she will unless she stumbles badly. I have always believed that much of her support comes from the lower classes who still believe that the alias "Bill" will be in charge in an HRC presidency.
Actually, I heard it once said that the first GHWB reminded women of their first husband: so that was why they were supposed to have been charmed by "second husband" Michael Stanley Dukakis. The analogy did not work in 1988.
I wonder if the former Mrs. Lisa Foster ever understood what she was up against. I believe she has since remarried and tried to forget her association with the popular Clintons.
I assume you're speaking anecdotally.
Most people I know think she's a sure loser. ;)
(And so, btw, do Ickes, Geffen...
and Estrich before her alien pod transformation.)

I agree with those 'lower class' supporters. I think the husband would be in charge. (An upcoming thread: THE HILLARY PUPPET)

Probably wouldn't have an impact because those states are already blue and would not change the electoral outcome.
