50. Probably not, but we have to do what is right if we say we are....
concerned about integrity.

I don't expect that a Kerry Inauguration will happen, any more than I expected the votes to be counted fairly in the first place. However, that didn't stop me (or any of us) from phonebanking and writing voter letters and sending money to JFK and other dems around the country, none of which I have ever done before this election cycle.

The thing is, with the shoe on the other foot (Hilary secretly owning a voting machine company, Soros openly owning another and promising to help Florida deliver its electoral votes for JFK, exit polls that favored * and Kerry winning all the current blues plus Florida, Ohio, Virginia, New Mexico, and Colorado, then grinning smugly and lecturing the world about "political capital" evidenced by his popular vote blowout and the new dem majority in both houses of congress) do you think for one SECOND that there wouldn't be a DEAFENING outcry of Fraud and a DEMAND that * be restored to his rightful throne? Repubs wouldn't be wiping their tears, grouphugging, and saying that the important thing was to insure the integrity of the elections in the future, AFTER Kerry has the opportunity to pack the SCOTUS and clean up the air and water against our economic interests. Can you say, "Martial Law?" And the media would make it look like grassroots efforts of real American Patriots.

IF there was fraud, we need to demand that Kerry be put where he belongs. Even if we are pretty damn sure that it won't work, and even if the media paints us as crazy :tinfoilhat: . I think, to be incredibly mushy about this, we owe it to our children and grandchildren.

This is America. If there is, on the instant replay, pass interference, touchdowns are called back all the time.
