Re: At the end of your piece you raised (4.00 / 2)

the specter of a stolen election. On Democracy Now Amy Goodman interviewed a person who said that this election could be stolen by the Republicans. So my QUESTION:

If in 48 hours Barack Obama is NOT the Pres. elect, what then?

What do you see happening across the US?
What will Obama et al DO?
What do you recommend? Should we all forget it and go on a shoe buying binge? (Forgive me Izzy. I had to type it.)

What do you say Europe? Step up or in this case, sit down and type.

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.

Well, as you know, I do feel a shoe buying binge is the appropriate response to most setbacks, however... I don't know. Or I don't want to think about it. Or something.

My friend on the cattle ranch in N. Nevada said that if McCain wins, they're "taking to the streets." Now, I don't know where they'll FIND streets there, but I'm pretty sure they're serious.

An interestingly light turn-out on this question. I dare not drop this stinker in the middle of today's OT; no need to get Drew involved. But tomorrow, either way, if Obama wins or if McCain obviously STEALS the election, things are gonna change so I'll bring the music early; can't go with the alcohol this time. RATS!!

The cattle?
