I felt hope last night.
Late (for me) last night I was watching TV. I was so heartened that I heard the following two things in a span of 20 minutes:

1) The first one was an ad for an upcoming Bill Maher special on HBO. I only caught a small snippet of it but he said about the owner of the electronic voting booths hanging out and being friends with *!

2) The second item was on 'Late Night With David Letterman'. Dave did his top ten list and last night it was for the top ten things * wanted to accomplish in the next four years. Number one? I am glad you asked. It was making sure all the voting machines were rigged for Jeb's run in 2008!

I thought, OMG! I had thought about this a day or two before and whether they would try to continue the Bush legacy and have Jeb run with fixed machines. And to hear it on TV was just amazing.

Anyway, I really felt the RW had done such a great job on making suspicions of election fraud equal tin hat theories that I rejoiced at seeing it out there in the media. It makes me think that these theories are becoming more and more mainstream. It really did my heart good. Are things, perhaps, turning for us?

2. I'd like to think so,
but I never underestimate the capability of the american public to ignore the obvious.

4. Go anyone who dares to speak out.
If we can pick up momentum, the RWers will not know what hit them until it is too late.

A lot of things have made me feel better lately including Rummy having to cancel his trip, it seems, due to a human rights org wanting a warrant issued for his arrest.

Every little bit helps. It really gives me hope.

I agree, go David L.
