Reply #32: I'm a little bitter about Obama's attitude regarding the 2004 election theft...

[O.M.B.inOhio]

When Sen. Boxer challenged the electors of Ohio, Obama said he was "absolutely convinced" that the outcome in Ohio was legitimate and gave a long speech about how nice it is to be able to vote. A more openminded person would have been interested in the facts. Perhaps some senators could have said, "OK, we're open to accepting the results in Ohio. But first, let's figure out why there was a terror threat at an election office in Warren County, Ohio, which compelled the elections officials to kick out observers. Let's have some voting machines analyzed to determine why 99.9% of the "glitches" that occurred favored Mr. Bush...." and so on.

Now, this is a relatively minor quibble with an electrifying and highly capable candidate. Certainly Hillary did not stand up with Boxer, either. I voted for Obama i nthe primary, feeling that he is certainly the more electable candidate and the one who would make me again proud to be an American. But if this next election is stolen in ways similar to 2004, will he respond with another speech?
