      John, are you picking up on all this good news being posted on the blog?

      After all the republican lawsuits against the democrat owned electronic voting machine companies, after all the republicans in CA-50 demanding a hand recount, and after all the democrat election warlords in CA-50 charging exhorbitant prices for a little hand count, the dems have yet for ONE OFFICIAL of theirs to criticize the good democratic company made electronic voting machines’ wonderful performance.

      Wow … do we republicans have to do this nonpartisan stuff on our own?

      Where are your morals anyway?

      How come it seems BB is the only place covering the fraud in Georgia?
      I’m totaly disappointed with Raw Story. Their coverage seems to already be conceding for Cynthia with no mention what so ever of the vote switching etc.

      Wanted to make sure you saw this:
      Florida House candidate banned from City of Alachua by judge

      “I cannot investigate the stolen election,” Grapski told RAW STORY.

      In an astonishing turn of events, a judge has banned Charles Grapski, Democratic candidate for the Florida House of Representatives in the 23rd District, from entering the city of Alachua – his hometown – where Grapski had filed a lawsuit alleging election fraud by city officials in a city commissioner’s race.

      I’ve furled my sails and am now on a starboard tack.
      But by morning I’ll have to jibe back to a port tack.

      Peaceful sailing

      How and why could Cathy Cox lose? She was a shoe in with the ability to rig the voting machines. She also had all votes of the slaker’s without photo ID’s that she supported!!

      I am so sad.

      Not worth the worry though as Taylor will get slammed by Perdue without question and he continues on in his role as Governor.
