Kerry's early morning concession is a deep mystery. There were already news of irregularity reports of the Ohio vote. Kerry had a big war chest hire lawyers to look into this, in the eventuality of a repeat of the Florida '00 debacle. Yet, I heard that Kerry quickly called off the lawyers hired for this purpose and instead hired a law partner from Bob Taft's law firm to carry on this investigation. OK, if this is all water under the bridge, what is being done to prevent such election frauds this November. We know for sure that there are still a lot of Diebold machines out there. Registration forms and paper ballots could be easily dumped or destroyed. Howard Dean should make a gigantic effort to organize an infrastructure to oversee voting irregularities especially in the swing states. We know for sure the the Bush administration have a lot at stake, like impeachment of the would, therefore will pull out all the stops to prevent the House, at least, from returning a Democratic majority.
