103. it's hard to believe but it's the most plausible explanation
keep in mind, although you may be obsessed with the issue and very aware of many of the details, most people in this country are completely unaware. A growing number of people are becoming aware of the paperless voting machines. she must be aware of it because of the bill in congress.

but still most people, even if they know about the paper ballot bill, may not even be aware of diebold and ess. and most people if they watch the corporate media just have no clue.

i think most of our legislators don't have the time to get into the details of every issue. Boxer and others might know about the paper ballot bills, but they probably have been relaxing with their families over the holidays and watching the regular news, and not reading DU like we have.

it's not an excuse, i'm just saying that it's an obsticle. i think there are some that believe even Boxer knows exactly what's going on but she's part of the conspiracy. I think it's much more plausible that she just doesn't know, as she said on TV.

It's sickening to think that they don't know about this, but at least we can see where the battle is. we have to convince the public, but we also have to convince our representatives. we can and we must.
