16. I agree with you on this point
"A lot of folks are setting themselves up for a big, big fall."

What Jan 6th may bring, is that 1 (Boxer?) or perhaps more Senators may stand up with Conyers and whomever else in the House he can bring along with him, to contest the Electors' vote.

This outcome, should it occur, will put much needed focus on Election reform, in Ohio and elsewhere.

What it WON'T bring, is "President Kerry."

I wanted it as much as anyone here - I joined the Kerry forum on March 18th, and I fully expected that he'd win on Nov 2nd. But, he didn't, and nothing that happens on Jan 6th is going to change that.

I'm not a closet Freeper, I'm just a realist. Flame me, ban me if you must. I'll gladly retreat to the post-campaign Kerry board that broke the "We've got Boxer" story tonight.

The real issue of Jan 6th is not "President Kerry," it's Election reform. We can't change what happened this time around. But we can make damned sure it never happens again.

Stepping off the soapbox.
