4. The race shouldn't be close enough to have this swing it.
So, whatever.

23. Right out of Rove's playbook
Reeks of Rove finding an electronic "bug" in his candidates campaign headquarters many moons ago.

8. You think voters will assume that Al was out there with a can of paint?
Come on. As someone already said, Norm probably did it himself in desperation.

Psalm 2 (for the Bible challenged)..

Psalm 2

1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.

5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

6Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

7I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

8Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

9Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

<<<<<

Sounds like the work of a religious nutjob...

10. I highly doubt that this election will be decided on the basis
of one act of vandalism alone. Vandalism is nothing new in politics, it has been done before and will be done again. Rarely has it determined the outcome of an election.

14. It had to be a Republican tactic.
First of all, supporters of Franken know how to spell and use proper English grammar. They wouldn't put up a sentence that looks like a cell phone text message. "u r a ...." instead of "You are a ...."? Come on.

Second, Franken supporters wouldn't quote Bible scripture.

28. UPDATE: Democratic Senator Klobuchar's garage also vandalized.
So I think the concerns about this having an affect on the election are unwarranted.

25. That can NOT be the work of godless liberal socialists like us
They referred to a bible chapter. Only Christians, and therefore, by definition, Republicans, would do that.

31. I love how everyone on that board is blaming liberals, but the vandals hit both D and R
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 02:37 PM by TornadoTN
And with the same message on each one. They even hit Rep. Ellison's home - he is a Democrat.

This is either a false-flag or just some religious nutcase like the Westboro idiots that hate all politicians.

So its obvious that critical thinking is something that the GOP never practices.

34. Yep. I noticed that as well
Interesting that they didn't read the article at all, where it mentions Ellison and Klobuchar being hit as well.

37. When I posted it...
News of Klobuchar's home being hit also wasn't yet known...

The reason I said what I did is because of the closeness of the race, and this is just the kind of thing the media will latch onto (Wellstone memorial anyone?)

Obviously it is different if Klobuchar's home was hit too
