I'm reminded of a quote from the American President when I think of this election...

President Shepherd is talking about his crime bill and says, "I don't want to just win this. I want to win it by a couple of touchdowns."

Well, that's how I feel about this election. While I'll take a one-point victory ... I don't want to just win this. I want to win it by a couple of touchdowns.

Run up the score.

1) the voter suppression, and
2) the as-yet STILL unfixed Black Box voting issue, where
GOP private corporations own the voting machines and the
source codes.

That's exactly what it is going to take to "win this".
