These election fraud stories were virtually non-existant over the past -- which number should I choose -- 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, or 96 months?
Except, of course, as filed at "alternative" media sites by a handful of courageous journalists like Greg Palast, whose superb work simply doesn't register on the public consciousness.
Like the warnings of RFK, Jr.
Unheeded.
Last night, as part of CNN's post-debate "analysis," Democratic operative James Carville said, and I paraphrase, "If Obama goes into election day five points ahead and McCain wins, we're going to ... well, I'll leave it at that."
Here's hoping -- against hope -- that this subtle public warning has been delivered to the inevitable fixers in more certain terms privately.
But wait.
As previously noted ... what difference does it make?
I'm still with George Carlin on this whole voting thing.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
