Killer Democrat Wedge Issue: Republicans steal elections

[zulchzulu]

Democrats need a wedge issue and there is nothing more fundamental than having your vote counted.

We could start doing killer ads on TV about this and drum it up for 2006.

Repugs should be tagged as undemocratic motherfuckers who steal elections with their Repug-owned computer election machines.

I can't think of anything more obvious. I'll do some animation about Diebold and the link to the Republicans over the years.

We need to hammer this message over and over. Put on your Karl Rove mask. Do it....I know you can.

Liberal Bloggers Say Election is 'More Depressing' Than 9/11

(CNSNews.com) - Bloggers on the liberal Democratic Underground website have overwhelmingly labeled Nov. 3, 2004, the day after Election Day, "more depressing" than Sept. 11, 2001 in a poll of online members.

Seventy-two percent of poll takers said they believed the day Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) conceded defeat in the presidential election was more tragic than the day more than 3,000 Americans were killed in the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and on a hijacked plane that crashed in a Pennsylvania field.

One member, "Big Blue Marble," said "I have lived 61 years, lost my parents and my sister plus many many pets and this is the darkest day of my life."

Another member, "zulchzulu," implied that he/she would like to see President Bush dead. "We can only hope that Bush doesn't make it through four years," he/she said. "The day Bush is no longer president before the term ends will be a national week-long holiday in my World."
