WELL within cheating distance, I’m afraid.

[FreeAtlanta]

Keep counting until the Democrats get the result they want. Someday, they will push us too far.

[GreatOne]

While I certainly agree with you both that LBJ was ruthless enough, the main evidence I submit goes against his being involved is the fact that he willingly declined to run in 1968. Someone ruthless enough to be involved in murder at that level isn't stepping aside.

I still go with mob involvement. They had the best mixture of motive, opportunity, and power to get the deed done and not get caught.

Have they found any votes for Coleman or are they only finding Franken votes?

[Nekman]

Any state that elected a Pro wrestler as it’s governor, cannot be expected to do the right thing. But then again,Minnesota is the land of lakes in the north,and we know the propensity to attract LOONS! I should know,we have plenty of them here too,must be a cold weather thing.

I agree about the mob, but I could agrue the mob was generally patriotic and also, they may have thought they'd have a lot to lose.

In watching the 3 hour program American Experience, they really showed the deterioration and isolation of LBJ in the months leading up to his decisioon not to run. A different man from the one in 1963-87.

BTW watch American Experience in the next two weeks. Oswald's Ghost.

[nufsed]

63-67.

A ballot box that was left in someone’s car trunk election night containing 300 or so “votes” from a “minority” neighborhood will be “found” if past history in places like Washington state are any indication. Then they’ll stop counting.

Hey, I lived through the 2004 Governors race debacle here in Washington State between Queen Christine Fraudoire and Dino Rossi. I hate to be negative, but stick a fork in Norm Coleman. He is finished!

This is nothing compared to what the RATs have had to come up with before. Be prepared for ballots being found at the post office, trunk of a car, under a table at the counting offices, and maybe a whole new place that we haven't even thought of yet.

They will do ANYTHING to win including going to jail to protect their candidate and get him/her into office. I think 4 people went to jail here in Washington over the shenanigans in 2004.

What will happen if the Republicans figure out they should just do the same thing and try to steal elections?

[doorgunner69]

Underestimated how many fraudulent votes they’d need, eh?

[Diamond]

You're kidding, right?

Cordially,

[GBA]

Yeah, I’m kidding, more or less.

No

Id Democrats cheat, and continue to get away with cheating, then soon the only Republicans who would run against them would be those willing to out-cheat them. And that would be bad for us all.

Yes it would. The solution is to tighten up the voting process but that ain't happenin' with the RATs in charge.

[HonestConservative]

“He came up short..................”

I’m sure he’s used to that.

[TheThinker]

Looked like Kennedy would be in office for 8 years and LBJ’s career was over for all practical purposes.

And then JFK was assassinated. But that's how the Democrats roll.

[TheThinker]

I have come to the conclusion that the sheeple are so easily manipulated that you could run the biggest moron in the world and they would elect him because the media whipped them into an angry frenzy.

[uglybiker]

There’s no way the comedian loses this election.

Comedian....someone who is funny.

Which one is it again?

[AndyJackson]

that ain't happenin' with the RATs in charge.

It didn't happen with the pubbies in charge either.
