4. You do realize that most historians
accept the fact that Richard J. Daly and his Cook county political operation (machine) stole the 1960 election for John Kennedy.

There is a lot more proof of that election theft than in 2004 for the shrub.

Democrats have been known to steal elections, it is one of the early things that turned me to the GOP at the time (I am now a recovering Republican). I watched as Da Mayor got away with any and all sort of fraud all in the name of his precious Democrat party.

I want the Democrats to do well now, but lets not lose sight of the fact that some serious manure was pulled by Dems in the past and if it is bad now it was bad then and consistency demands that we say so.

BTW: Say what you will about Nixon, at least he gave the nation a service by not contesting the 60 election, believe me he had serious grounds for doing so.
