If Rove & Bush* can really steal this election then why does
bush* seem so panicked why are they so frenetic.

It doesn't look like it's all for show to cover for
diebold. It looks like genuine desperation to me.
CNN etal are doing all they can for him except inviting him
to the studio to physically lick his Ass.

Yet he still has no Mojo

So I was thinking that maybe despite their best efforts they
realize that the turnout for the Dem's is going to be so unreal
that they are SOL for stealing it.

1. Because instead of just stealing one state
they are going to have to steal at least two and that doubles their chances of being caught.

5. It will blow up in their face if they try to steal Ohio IMO
Jeb will deliver Florida no matter what.

2. It has to be reasonably close for the BBV scenerio
to be effective.

BushCo* is afeared that its starting to not even look close.

4. It must be razor-thin for the theft to work
If everybody is exit-polling that they voted for Kerry, and Bush wins, it will look way too suspicious, and more likely they'll be busted. They only needed to steal one important state. With each point drop in the polls, their theft scenerio gets tougher and tougher to pull off.

7. Jeb in Florida, the Diebold guy in Ohio...
DELIVERING its electoral votes to Bus**t....but even so, if we could just keep the Gore states & pick up WV, we'd win.

8. i thought only 4 counties in OH are BBV
and I heard that paper absentee and provisional (where available) ballots have been streaming in everywhere.

Turnout looks to be huge and they know it spells D-O-O-M for Republicans if there is high turnout.

9. Because the lights were turnd on and they fled like the cockroaches they
are.

Seriously, every last plan they had to steal the election has been exposed and is being watched.

They, quite simply, cannot get away with election theft easily, especially if Kerry wins by more than about 35 electoral votes.

And that's what it comes down to. If Kerry wins by more than 5% of the electoral college, they won't be able to steal a second term!

11. Yes for a group of individuals that supposedly have it sewn up
They seem very Panicked imo.

I think Rove knows a tidal wave is coming, of course he won't
let bubble boy know this just keep sticking him out there for his
adoring faith based sycophants & hope CNN Faux etc can turn this around.

13. I agree with the above posters
If it apprears close or is close, that is the only way they can steal it. But I believe that they are also desperate not only for thier job or a lost chance to steal more of the treasury, I think many are afraid of a Dem administration starting investigations ending up with many being led away in cuffs.

14. I was wondering the same thing...I bet they dont have ENOUGH diebolding
in place. I bet they only have it arrange to shave in shrub's direction 5%, figuring that was all they needed. Don't forget, even if the diebold boxes are stacked, if they came out 100% Bush it would call attention to it. So they probably have it rigged 55-60% Bush, and figured that would be enough...but if diebold ONLY controls 30%, and the advantage per machine was only 6%, then they're only shaving upwards 2% of the total vote. No problem in a close election, but if Kerry's electoral tsunami is higher than 10% over bush, the cheating won't work.
And, regardles of the public polls, you KNOW they have access to real data internally. they KNOW, like we do, that Kerry could end up with a 10% or higher advantage as a real possibility.

Therefore, I think they are very, very worried. I don't think they thought they'd have to be working this hard by this point.

18. Because we do things FAIRLY
...it is our way. The only ones who would pull that shit are Republicans and anarchists. We believe in Truth, Justice, and the REAL American Way! Hell, Superman was a Democrat!!!

19. Doing things fairly is what allowed
us to let them steal last time. Fairly doesn't always win

20. We didn't know ROVE as well as we should have back then
Now, we DO. We aren't cheaters, but we won't let them cheat. Rove's tricks have been exposed, he is going to have to be very sneaky this time, and we are waiting for him.

Boston won the Pennant, anything can happen. And we won't have to cheat to make it so.
