Political Writer for the Columbus Dispatch answers my email on RFK Jr's ..

Rolling Stone article about Ohio's stolen election. I asked if they were going to cover it. This is his response.

<The analysis is incorrect. The dispatch and other Ohio papers have looked at these issues and come up with different conclusions. Salon, not a conservative bastion, did a critique of the rfk article that hits the major points. Thanks for writing.>

"Move along nothing to see here .... move along."

1. Thanks for trying. The Dispatch is not exactly reality-based (RW). nt

2. What an incurious, pathetic chickenshit!

He must favor disenfranchisement,theft, fraud, ballot-stuffing, conflict-of-interest, and corruption because that's what he is protecting.

Means nothing that Deibold was pictured with Abramhoff and gave him money. Huh. I'm so proud of our media I can hardly stand it.

3. I guess the testimony of hundreds of witnesses means nothing

Has he read Conyer's report?

Those who witnessed illegal activities and were denied the right to vote were willing to testify in a hearing.

Is Blackwell ready to testify?

4. does this reporter work for ap?

Because that's the same thing the AP bureau chief said. I guess they have their talking points.

Curiously, this is the same kind of crap that was said about the report from the consortium study of the Florida election.

5. I'd ask the reporter to explain one thing

Why izzit, that with all the anomalies reported, and I assume the reporter will acknowledge that not everything went like buttah in Ohio in 2004, not one of the anomalies went against Republican interests? And if he allows a follow-up: While his reaction to the irregularities seems to be a cavernous yawn, would that be his reaction if Ohio had gone for Kerry in 2004 under opposite circumstances?

6. Something very bad is happening to Ohio. It has gone from being

a great mainstream state to a moral cesspool. How did that happen?

7. Term limits, corruption, campaign money laundering and gerrymandering

And everything the GOP learned in Ohio, they've been exporting to Washington, DC.

Its been like this for about 10 or 12 years now.
