55. What I'm trying to say
(and I'm sorry I didn't make it more clear) is that yes, I believe the election was stolen. But it's should be pretty obvious that around half the population voted for W. Those two statements are not incompatible.

They simply did a better job of stealing the election this time around. They made it look almost legitimate, so long as you buy into the idea that any anomalies or evidence of fraud is inconsequential and wouldn't effect the ultimate outcome.

And it you're so fired up Sideways, I hope you've been out rioting in the streets. As for me, I'm doing the grass roots thing, because I don't notice enough of my fellow citizens out there rioting.

I even ran for office, so I guess I'm entitled to say something about grass roots and being involved.
