2. That tears it!
Look, we either vote "for real" or don't count it. Simple.

4. I do not recall Hillary or Bill much involved. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

that votes be counted properly!

8. Great point Norma!
Clearly, she could care less about "voters."

Is anyone really buying into that?

She's just using the situation with FL/MI to stay in the race longer
and exact damage on Obama, his supporters and his chances against McCain.

She's a sore loser and a big baby.

9. No. In fact, I believe I heard that the Clinton camp made it very clear to Gore he was on his own.
Gore did NOT get the support of top-level democrats when he challenged those votes. The Clintons totally controlled the party machinery at that time. I firmly believed that they were quite happy with Gore being denied the White House. Because of that, they have been in control of this party for 16 years. And, they certainly didn't lift a finger to help with voter fraud in 2004. It's always all about them.

15. it's all about HILLARY being disenfranchised......
she didn't mind when her friends where filing suit in Nevada to attempt to disenfranchise all of those "casino" "working class" caucus goers.

Bill angrily defended the legal action.

too much naked ambition....she should at least wrap a towel around her ambition, don't you think?

12. Is Obama comparing Florida's 'epic struggle in democracy' to the fucking civil rights movement
or Zimbabwe?

18. You mean private citizen Bill Clinton?
