(1,713 posts)How do they have absolute power? Come on. We won last time minus a few thousand votes in 3 states. Since then we have won a large majority of state, local and Federal elections. They don't control shit. We do. PA, WI, MI and several other states now have Democratic Govs and SOS that control elections. We turn out, we win. Your a bit dramatic my friend.

Not sure, but after this weekend I may just take a long break from DU. Well, we'll see.
Goodnight America. Goodnight Noble Experiment.
