Whoa -
>Do you think the Republicans are not out to steal the election if they could? Why them and not the Dems? I do not think either party has a monopoly on dishonesty or dirty tricks. Now that the machine has been reversed engineered, etc. and done so at Universities - (where there is a decided liberal bias) I would actually suspect that it would be far more likely that the bad-apples among young Dems would try to steal votes - ... and might even use the "assumption" that Diebold was possibly at blame in Ohio, years ago for the other side to either get revenge or to play a kind of sneaky double-cross. I know lots of IT professionals and programmers, and can say absolutely and without question that most of them are strongly for Obama in this state. The boss may be for McCain, or the guy who signs the checks, and that creates an unusual situation. This may not be true elsewhere, but an election official who allowed the memory card in a machine to be switched, even if it was supposed to benefit his choice - could never really know who it might favor in the end .
