13. A thought just occurred to me as to why the Dems are silent
Remember, in 2000, we were the "party of the whining sore losers trying to steal the election in the courts".

So, the Dems are keeping quiet.

Until January 3, 2005.

When they count the Electoral votes.

In Congress.

On the "boring political channels" THAT NOBODY REALLY WATCHES!

Ergo, we will not be losing the battle in the "court of public opinion" by "appearing as a bunch of sore losers who can't stay out of the courts to try to steal the election".

When the electoral votes are counted, then, hopefully, at least one senator will join with the protesting House Dems and sign the document, unlike the appeasers did in January 2001.
