(2008-01-08) — In the wake of the unexpected outcome of the New Hampshire Democrat primary Tuesday, sources at the Democrat National Committee (DNC) said they’re still trying to figure out whom to sue amid a flurry of allegations of fraud, malfunctioning electronic voting machines and voter intimidation.
“It’s a forgone conclusion that if the race outcome defies the pollster predictions, there must have been corruption,” said an unnamed DNC source. “Just because it’s an intra-party contest, doesn’t mean we’ll subject the results to less scrutiny.”
The DNC source added that “Americans need to have faith in the electoral process, but the New Hampshire Democrat primary has the smell of Bush-Gore 2000 all over it. We’re determined to follow the facts where they lead.”

“Now it’s Edwards’ turn to cry,
Edwards’ turn to cry,
Edwards’ turn to cry!
Some voters came back … to me!”

The rush to claim “vote fraud” is expected but unrealistic. The simple fact is, Hillary just did a better job of turning out the voters. Especially the ones from nearby states.

The NH Primary clearly shows that NH is not IA.
Why so many Talking Heads are flabbergasted by this well-known fact is beyond me…..
Oh, wait, they sequester themselves within their own Analyses and Polls and, so, therefore, don’t actually have a clue.
The hilarious part (in a purely Diabolical Sense), though, is the antics of those politicians who share the same Obsequious Narcissism.
You can almost see the Synapse-Like Arc (SLA) of a Two-Way Connection (TWC) between some politicians and the media; reminiscent of a snake swallowing its own tail or, maybe, a Cannibal beginning his/her meal on his/her own foot-the Truly Bizarre Factor (TBF), in either case, is that, yes, all of the participants are actually gaining weight.

Good morning all. I got up this morning and saw Hillary and Obama on Fox News and had to rub my eyes to make sure I wasn’t seeing things. And THEN they had Madeleine Albright and I really had to pinch myself. What were all these Democrats doing by lowering themselves to be interviewed on Fox News??
Obama was articulate and kept the focus on issues, and Hillary laughed her horrible laugh and kept the focus on her. I wonder if Rush is going to do a count of how many times she said, “I” vs. Obama. She really impressed me when she informed me that she, singlehandedly, last night, had liberated me and my gender. She and Algore must have gotten together to share notes via the internet that he invented.
But then my world was totally turned upside down when Jesse Jackson’s smiling face appeared next to Steve and Gretchen and Brian. Hell had frozen over…that is until I fell to the floor, rolling in laughter at his statement that Barak was magical and had a magic about him. Rush Limbaugh and Shanklin must be getting their parody ready to play again: Barak the Magic Negro”. Politics gets weirder and weirder.

You beat me to the punch bowl.Yes,I saw Ms Hill on Fox and Friends expounding on how she ,for 35 years, has awakened each morning asking “what can I do to help someone”?

“democrat” and “fraud” are synonymous.

“what can I do to help someone†else? She has been helping herself to the people’s money for 35 years and still doesn’t know the answer. I’ve been crying since I first heard of the Clintons. Why wont they just go away? That was a rhetorical question for et and those in Rio Linda. The answer is their narcissism and lust for power. Like all Dhimmis, they don’t give a rat’s ass about anyone else.

Maggie ,when Hillary claims she awakes each morning and says “what can I do to help someoneâ€? it isn’t really a lie. The only someone she means is” Hillary”. By stretching it a little (especially around the hips) it fits.

I’d like to demand a National Voter’s Registration Card, ala bank credit or debit cards, with the individual’s photo being the 3D Hologram and the card being based in a National computer that would delete any 2nd or more attempts to use the card in the same election.
Just submitting the bill in the House would account for a good deal of coronary thrombosis in a number of House Liberals.

Fred Re#23: “I’d like to demand a National Voter’s Registration Card, ala bank credit or debit cards …”
Careful — that proposal is what got Huckabee labelled “soft on illegals.”

gafisher - “Boss Tweed and his control of New York City’s corrupt Tammany Hall is a fascinating look at political corruption in the 19th and 20th centuries.”
Since the days of Tammany Hall & Boss Tweed, elections without a positive voter ID aren’t really elections - they’re simply games to determine who can do the best job of voter fraud. A vote without a positive voter photo ID is nothing more than another game piece.

gafisher hit it squarely. Whatever you think of polls, they are not that far off. Either a lot of Clinton supporters polled claimed to support Obama in order to stimulate a higheer Clinton turnout, or Clinton picked up a lot of “outside” votes. I’m with gafisher in suspecting a bus-in. I’m sure it won’t be the last one. There’s still more primaries… and of course the election itself. Need I say more?
