I'm really beginning to think they're going to steal another election.

[Critters2]

A week ago I was certain we'd win....and I was elated. Now, I'm getting scared. Please, reassure me!!

[Captain Hilts]

1. They're not going to be able to steal this one. nt

[Critters2]

3. I hope you're right. I fear all the ACORN stuff is in preparation for challenging

the legitimacy of the election.

[TomInTib]

5. I believe it depends on how badly they want the White House.

Frankly, I cannot imagine why anyone would want to be the next President.

[Captain Hilts]

16. Like Bill Clinton, Obama knows how to play this game. He's a player.

That's how you win.

[Purveyor]

2. It is early yet but they could steal a 'close' election. I don't think this one will be close.

They can't steal a 'landslide' and we need to make sure that every vote for Obama shows up and votes.

Just saying...

[Captain Hilts]

7. It won't be close. Mookie, 8 years in polling.

Besides, McCain is doing everything he can to help Obama win.

[Erin Elizabeth]

4. Visualize victory.

I'm starting to not only think we're going to win, but that it's going to be big. Bigger than people expect. Visualize victory.

[Critters2]

13. I'm trying. I'm also working the phones tomorrow afternoon and Thurs night. nt

[Erin Elizabeth]

18. Working makes it happen.

It also makes you feel more positive. Good job!!!

[BlooInBloo]

6. I'm really beginning to think that I'm fucking sick of people telling me we're fucking doomed.

[1corona4u]

10. I agree....

[Captain Hilts]

12. Haven't you learned any new words since 7th grade?

[renie408]

19. Do you have a hard time sitting at the computer with that stick up your ass? n/t

[Captain Hilts]

49. I must have strolled into a junior high.....nt

[renie408]

14. DOOMED....n/t

[BlooInBloo]

15. GAH!

:rofl:

[ThatsMyBarack]

21. Well put!

But things are looking a little more positive these days....knock wood! :patriot:

[BlooInBloo]

25. Um... Exactly how much MORE positive could they look?

:rofl:

[demokatgurrl]

8. They are surely going to try

Absolutel.

[pocoloco]

9. No brainer....

lose and they go to jail!

Better to stay alert and wait a while before celebrating!!

[occe]

11. I'm with you

In fact, it makes me sick. What if they just throw away votes? No one would know. It literally makes my stomach feel sick thinking about it.

[progressiveforever]

17. make no mistake--they will try, but the more votes we have, the harder it is to steal

It will be a little more difficult, though not impossible for them to steal this time around.

[EFerrari]

20. This is the deal as I know it:

Obama will win.

But, they have to try to steal it.

And, we know where and how they will try.

So, we have a choice.

We can let them try or we can push back. We know most of their tricks and there are many, MANY more eyes on them this time.

[Critters2]

23. That's right! We MUST fight back!! nt

[EFerrari]

28. We MUST do everything we can to support voters in swing states.

Remind them to check their reg.

Ask them to vote in a group -- so if they're challeged at the polls, they'll have a witness.

Stay together and exchange information as it becomes available.

Support election protection group, donate, volunteer with them.

Elections are NOT magic. They work because our people make them work.

Let's please do what we can do and NOW.

[Critters2]

38. I'm in a VERY blue state. I've encouraged friends in Iowa--

tho it looks quite blue at this point--Wisconsin, and MN. And I'm doing what I can here.

[EFerrari]

43. I know Obama will win. We have to keep that win.

:hi:

[Essene]

22. I think many GOP leaders will see an unacceptable risk in tryng, this time.

but as long as it's not legitimately a nailbiter based on 1-2 state electoral votes, they cannot steal this.

America will not allow it, this time.

I think many GOP leaders are looking to cut losses, rather than to make things ever worse for themselves long term. If they risk trying to steal the election, they risk a complete destruction of their party. Think about how many of them are looking at this. ALL the dynamics are stacked against them & they'd be lucky not to face a landslide after the last month.

The GOP is in turmoil

It's divided and openly so, in a way i havent seen in my lifetime. Rash acts by them could do more than turn people off, but in fact DESTROY the party permanently. Folks are engaging in mutiny and ashamed since 2006.

[Ozma]

24. Thank you for YOUR CONCERN! you have lost a lot of links to reality

Unless you can show us 500 polls showing McCain/Palin ahead in the USA



Start to show those polls HER in this thead.....show us real data....or be gone.

[Critters2]

26. Be gone?! Who the fuck are you?!

I actually volunteer for the party org. You post goofy messages on the internets.

Who are YOU to tell me to "be gone"?

Welcome to my ignore list, newbie.

[RBInMaine]

27. GET THIS NEGATIVE SHIT OFF THE SITE ! GROW UP, WORK, AND QUIT WORRYWORTING.

[EFerrari]

31. YOUR CAP LOCK KEY IS STUCK11111

[BlooInBloo]

34. LOUD NOISES!!!!

:rofl:

[Seen the light]

29. DU has the most pessimistic people I've ever seen

You really must be joking. I can understand someone only being, let's say, 60% sure that Obama is going to win instead of 100%, but actually being "scared"? Come on.

[BlooInBloo]

30. Right? How much fucking better can it look?

:rofl:

[renie408]

36. Well, Palin could get busted having an affair with a black woman. n/t

[crankychatter]

48. I would need photographs, I'm sorry - nt

[BlooInBloo]

50. Talk about energizing your base!!!

:rofl:

[Critters2]

40. I worked the Howard Dean campaign in Iowa.

I know better than to ever assume.

[EFerrari]

37. Then you haven't been paying attention to the Republican election stealing machine.

Far from being pessimistic, DU recognizes a problem and steps up to it.

[BlooInBloo]

39. Oh no! Not you too!!! We must find a cure for this STAT!!!

:cry:

[EFerrari]

42. Yeah, I'm sorry. Me, too. The Bush Justice Department

has been trying to capture these votes for four years.

I don't see a way to say this quietly: they will try to steal swing state votes and they've been working hard to do it. They've had teams in all of those states for years.

Our upside is that we know what they're doing.

And, btw, all those people like the NYTs and like David Corn that called me and others nuts turned out to be WRONG.

So, try to support your people in the swing states. Because there's a shower of sh1t about to fall all over them.

[BlooInBloo]

44. Of COURSE they will try. And they will fail. Come back to the light!!!

:P

[EFerrari]

45. Can't, till after the election.

This must sound insane to people who haven't tracked the bs.

There is no Big Daddy that will stop this. We are Big Daddy!

lol

[BlooInBloo]

46. :)

[EFerrari]

47. I still have the email from the dick public editor at the NYTs

that tried to make me feel personally crazy WHILE he sent a mass email to the thousands of us asking for them to report Ohio.

I'm so glad I have no teenagers at home I can embarrass this year.

lol

:loveya:

[gateley]

32. Were you just listening to Lou Dobbs by any chance?

[Odin2005]

33. Aw Jeez. I'm sick of this kind of negativity.

We are too far ahead in the states the Pukes expected to be swing states for them too steal.

[morillon]

35. The polls are overwhelmingly in Obama's favor.

Even if someone is entertaining the idea of stealing the election, they've gotta know that it wouldn't work this time. There will be NO explanation for a McCain win other than theft.

[EFerrari]

41. The Republicans captured the Justice Department

and have spent four years putting in an election fraud infrastracture.

I don't mean to alarm any one, but if you're not helping your swing state friends vote, you're not trying.

And they can concoct any number of stories -- just like the "values voters" story they floated the weekend after they stole it from Kerry. The "values voters" that no one could ever find.

So, don't freak out. Get busy.
