Reply #50: Personal vendetta ????? Anybody home there ?

[birdman]

Since when is an honest disagreement a personal
vendetta ? It is the opinion of many on this board
that any security problems should definitely be fixed
but at the same time that the story has been rather
radically overhyped. How is that in any way a personal
vendetta ? I have no animus toward Ms. Harris who for all
I know is a nice person. In fact if she's ever giving one of
her voting talks in the Philly area I'd probably make time to
go see it.

But my problem with this whole issue is that it has been used
by some (not particulary Ms. Harris) to suggest that elections
in the Fall of 2002 had been stolen and there has been nothing
presented by anyone to suggest that. Also the near apocalyptic
fervor of some of the BBVers has led to an us aaginst them
mentality that the issue does not warrant.

Now if you question the story you're a defender or employee of Diebold
or conducting a "personal vendetta" against Ms. Harris.

That is completely ridiculous.

Sheesh.
