2. Posting Marc Racicot's email from a couple days ago for your entertainment

Shows how he is revving up his followers to be the ones to get angry and feel all persecutited over our use of lawyers to defend our rights. This guy is worse than Cheney as far as I'm concerned. The DLC needs to address him seperately and render him useless in future politics. He fucked over Montana for the corporate masters then blew town, taking jobs with ENRON, the RNC and now bush*/cheney 04. Read this sample of how this CREEP (remember C.R.E.E.P.?) operates:

Dear ###,

Just a few short days stand between us and the election. If the activities taking place in battleground states are any indication, our opponents plan a long, bitter, and vicious fight. Let me share just a sample of what is going on across the country today, 6 days before you vote. And let me tell you what else you may expect to see.

We have already seen 35 lawsuits filed in 17 states - some before the first ballot was even cast. So far, the Democrats have failed in their attempts to win this election in the courts, rather than the ballot box.

The shadowy groups aligned against us will stop at nothing, and I mean nothing, to win. That is why we must prepare for every possible outcome next Tuesday. That is why we must have the resources necessary to fight any legal battle. Will you ensure we're prepared?

Our offices have been broken into, vandalized, and robbed. Gun shots have pierced the doors and windows of several offices. Fortunately, no one was hurt in those attacks, but unfortunately, when union members stormed an office in Florida, a volunteer's arm was broken.

Our GELAC account (our legal fund, really) can be used to pay for some of the damage done to offices we occupy. More importantly, though, it allows us to pay the costs of a recount. It allows us to guard against the kind of lawsuits we have seen, and which we expect to see in the days after the election.

Those allied against us will not go quietly when the voters speak. They have already made clear they consider the election to be only the opening battle in a much larger war - a war we must also be prepared to fight. Will you make sure we're ready?

We do not want to go through another election where the outcome is held hostage by the courts and those who were defeated at the polls try to reverse the outcome through legal wrangling and endless litigation.

We want the people's will, not the will of high-powered trial lawyers, to determine the President. To make that happen, we need you. We need you to make one last contribution to our GELAC fund and help us secure the outcome of this election against those who would use violence, theft and assault as tactics - and those who would use the courts to claim a victory they did not earn.

Please give all you can.

Sincerely,

Marc Racicot
Chairman

P.S. Those who oppose us have already used theft, vandalism and assault as weapons to win this election. Their next stop will be the courts. Will you make a contribution to our legal fund and ensure we have the resources to uphold the vote when the people speak next Tuesday? Please give all you can. www.GeorgeWBush.com/Recount

// Exect the worst. Am convinced what actually goes down will be beyond our ability to fathom the hatefullness of these propagandists as they motivate their kool aide drinkers to defend the nation from us nasty ol liberals who insist on following the Constitution.

3. Let's get more people out there!

This is an outrage! Any DU Floridians who could join the protests? I am so angry that this is being swept under the rug by the corporate media.

5. A truck driver I know tells me that

the anti-shrub picketing is going on all over central Florida, too. He loves to wave and give a blast on his horn. The picketers love it too. He also tells me, he's sure there must be some repugs out there somewhere, but they must be hiding somewhere.
