In 2002 I was a poll watcher and latr had a conversation with a black gas station man. When I asserted that everyone alive got to vote, he laughed and agreed, "Oh, you know how they do, now, too." One of the mysteries of black allegiance to dems is that the dems will blame blacks, if they lose.

Hi Vigilanteman-

All one really needs to erode voter turnout in urban precincts is a snap of cold weather or heavy rains. It's obviously not scientific in nature, but anecdotal evidence suggests Republicans are more committed to reaching the polls when they've made the decision to vote.

You got to love those Dimorats.

Leave it to them to create a lie, convince masses of people about the lie only to find - gee, everyone believes it; OH NO!!!.

So now the people they indoctrinated don't care what happens; they have already been totally sold the lie that their votes don't count.

The black Americans who were on the recieving end of the Dims indoctrination should wake up and realize how they have been manipulated into remaining on the Dimorats plantation.

According to the Dems, there was one of these (with a big dog) at polling places all over the south, including the Florida panhandle in 2000.

I'm sorry to insult the insult the intelligence of some black Democrat voters, but gee whiz, how stupid to you have to be in order to believe that? And how scummy must the Dem leadership be to manufacture such a filthy lie? They truly want to undermine the integrity of our republic.

...."Many Republicans in Washington state believe that the Democrats stole the razor-thin 2004 governor's race there, but does anyone think a New York Times reporter will go to Walla Walla and write a sympathetic piece about white conservative voters who are so disillusioned that they plan to stay away from the polls?"....

Yes the LIBS did steal the governors race in 2004! King county (Seattle AKA SF north) suddenly found some 2000 ballots on the third count (second recount - which the liberal had lost both previous counts). When it was pointed out to King county election officials that you can not "recount" ballots that were not counted in the first place, they said "woops, we messed up, and now they are mixed up with everyone elses. There is no way to tell who voted for who. Darn!" You guessed it! Lib elected! (Agian, on the second recount) And the fools on the left have the nerve to accuse the GOP of voter fraud?

As a Washington state resident and voter, I challenge any LIB to say voter fraud to me with a straight face!

"It seems to us that the real problem here is that the Democrats have outsmarted themselves. By creating the false impression that black voters are victims, they have discouraged blacks from going to the polls."

I couldn't be sadder about the Rat predilection for shooting themselves in the foot. Hey, why don't y'all see if you can indict a gay Congressman as a pedophile, too? LOL!

regarding post 22

In 2004, it rained on cleveland, a dem stronghold, while most of the rest of ohio was dry.

or in gwb's words

"The course of this conflict is not known, yet its outcome is certain. Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them. "
