1. Very kewl....
Great article ~~~

I keep wondering if we'll here Abramoff's name spring up with the Diebold folks (Walden O'Dell) and the rest of those dirtballs...

Somehow I keep thinking he HAS to have had ties to them..

3. bradblogg already making that connection-and I have found
bits and pieces in my research. Abramoff was working for Preston Gates Ellis (Billy's dad) while his good buddy Reed was working directly for microsoft to lobby president-elect Bush when microsoft was in so much trouble for monopoly issues. Diebold was hooked in with microsoft, obtaining the proprietary software that they are so scared about they just let there contract with NC go rather than give up the source codes. Abramoff was not a pioneer the first election, but he did donate something like 5000.00$. I just have not been able to connect the dots any better.

2. They forgot Grover Norquist
Edited on Wed Jan-11-06 07:52 AM by formercia
Any time someone wants to call Rove, Susan Ralston calls Grover to get approval first. Grover is Karl's handler.
All these guys go back to the Poppy Bush campaign where they all worked with Lee Atwater, mr. dirty trickster.
Another bit of dirt. Judith Miller was 'very close' to lee Atwater at the time. Poppy sent W to keep an eye on the gang but ended up good buddies with Lee and Karl instead. The rest is history. That old gang of mine. lol
