I can't wait until this election is over , I am not a political junky
I ask myself after what happened in 2004 when many felt Kerry was a certain win even though there was doubt about fair elections while I listened to AAR .

I ask myself is the main reason Kucinich wants a recount in NH is because he knows something we don't like he is getting a jump start on election fraud knowing this will happen .

I do feel even in 2006 there were some seats stolen but due to a large turnout we did win a slim majority in the house and senate however even with hearings the Dems have folded far to many times and this is troubling , not as troubling as this Bush admin and their crimes that continue on to this day .

There still is no way we really know if our votes will be counted even in 2008 . Anyone with a brain knows the media can't be trusted .

I am also concerned just how fast issues like Bhuttos death has been erased from all news or the issues about Walter Reed or Pat Tillman and many other things just evaporate and there is never an end or an answer , same with the Plame case , gone .

This is facism we are in , I certainly don't trust a damn thing anylonger or have faith in this so called system , Faith for lack of a better word .

We certainly are kept up to the minute with garbage like Britney or OJ or the traffic reports .

I still feel like we are riding in a hand basket to hell .

I recall talk on liberal radio in 2004 if the elections were stolen once again we would stand up and fight this , that people would be in the sreets , this as you know didn't happen and I have no doubt it will not happen this time around either , provided the elections are stolen .

I think we have been put through enough tests since 2000 for these facist freaks know what we will do .

I wish I could rule out these thoughts however I can't .

1. I wish it was over. I find Spears and Hilton more entertaining.

2. I'm a political junkie, and I can't wait for it to be over.
Seems like it has been going on forever and there is still a loooong way to go. And like you, I doubt if we will ever trust the results of any election again. Thank you, Supremes.

4. I became pretty disillusioned with politics in general last year, so I didn't follow much of it
I didn't start watching MSM or following politics again until Iowa and after 10 months out of the loop not much has changed.
