106. First Of All You Obviously Know Nothing About Court
I've told you that and you don't listen. So I will explain it one more time.

I agree with you that nothing will come of these cases as they now exist because they are missing one of the two elements of an election case, which are: (1) irregularities or fraud, and (2) proof that the irregularities or fraud could have changed the outcome.

Guess which proof is missing? Unlike 2004 where the election was so close in Florida that proof of (2) was self evident, there is no such proof this time unless you do it with statistics.

How do you get the statistical evidence? With a poll. If the exit poll was not good enough to suit the critics, you do another one and do one that is.

Would Freeman like a better poll? Sure, so would I. Of course today the IPSOS poll shows that Americans now prefer Kerry 48% to 44%. More proof and support that the exit polls were right.

Listen one more time. This is a battle of expert oninion not scientific certainty. Freeman qualifies as an expert. He gets to give his opinion. Some other expert like you can give your opinion he is wrong. A judge or jury decides which one of your opinions they like best. Got it now?
