So how has the SeLECTION response been today
One cannot imagine how those folks from New Hampshire are feeling this morning, waking up thinking they were part of a change movement, only to get hit with 'shock and awe'.

:rant:


I was one of the first threads to post about the stealing that was going on after 12% count, couple of examples, the polls predicted; Edwards 17%, thats what he got 17%, if you where monitoring the counts, Edwards actually got to 17% after only 25% of the votes counts <surprise>

Then came the whammy, Hillary's count started moving faster than the freight train.


What happened to the Democratic process, we looked in that populaces' eyes and ROBBED them.

I love Bill (big dog) and Hillary, hell I love our top three candidates, but it would have been nice to have given these people some form of hope, they figure these are the dark days.

For us to go to that State look them in their eyes, encourage those folks to vote just so we can robbed them of their votes is a TRAVESTY

Now :rant: off!

This is not a battle, its a SeLECTION, The media is already calling for John Edwards to bow out
see what a'mean.

SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT ARE HILLARY'S PLAN FOR THIS COUNTRY.

Okay.....now take your cheap shot, 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 :nuke:


P.S

THERE ARE THOSE WHO MAKE SHIT HAPPENS, THOSE WHO KNOW WHATS GOING ON AND THOSE WHO ARE JUST PLAIN CLUELESS!

1. The exit polls matched the results.
So, either everyone lied in the exit polls or the exit polls were somehow rigged?

That would make us a democracy, and you know democracy is the pipe dream of us "looney lefties."

4. Is that what this is about then
DLC V DNC, must be wrong, maybe its about those who are saying we have 'Conservative Democrats' what the fuck, and they are the one attacking US!

because you sure can't tell me Dems are attacking each other this early in the Primary.

:wtf:

5. I have no idea
I'm not even assuming fraud occurred, but since diebold was involved, it's almost assured.

No, if there's one thing I'm sure of this election, it's that the person who will be "elected" will be certified by Bushco- and nothing can make me shake in my boots more than that insight.

8. My point is,......
its just plain weird that all the polls to have got it wrong, not close but for her to win by 3% and not trail is just unbelievable.

Those folks could not have switched overnight, not possible.

Notice the black out by the media about New Hampshire, not one of them had gone there to

investigate, not one of them have come forward with these are what the people of New Hampshire are

saying, they are on a blackout.

Thats my point.

Maybe the election problems would have been resolved by now (paper ballots).
