This whole paid recount process looks to be an end run to get at the spolied ballots and then try and determine voter intent fradulently like Florida 2000.

Nothing to see here, nothing to worry about--OH electors will cast their votes at noon tomorrow, and that'll be the end of it. From then on only Congress would have the power to successfully challenge the results, no crooked lefty judges or courts can do anything.

Even if the spoiled ballots were counted, at least 2/3rds of them would have to meet the very clear, strict standards OH has for validity (at least both corners must be punched, no dimpled, pregnant chads, etc) and ALL of them would have to go to Kerry. Plus, the board of elections in every county in OH is 2R-2D--for any vote to go to either Bush or Kerry, they would have to get at least one person from the other side to agree.

Their local news outlets may be more interested than those in the Dayton area.

Nothing that happens after the Electoral College votes tomorrow is going to have any relevance whatsoever, no matter how much the left-wing whackos might dream about a miracle.

Agreed, this paid recount is all about finding a count that will switch as many votes as possible through legal and extra legal means.

There is no way to "switch" votes in a recount. The only thing a recount can do is find new votes. Kerry still needs to find 118,776 votes in order to win in a recount. There are not enough spoiled ballots or uncounted provisional to get to that number even if he got 100% of the total. In Florida only 7% of the over/under vote ballots were deemed countable.
