And to think Democrats are watching all this with utter glee! The Party of "one man, one vote" suddenly favors one man, TWO votes (or three or
four) when doing so puts THEIR bugwitted candidate in the lead.

Informant in RNC arrests says he stopped
violence

PAUL, Minn. — To some of the people who know him back home in Texas, Brandon Darby is a traitor.
In his own mind, he's proud of what he did — feeding the FBI information that led to the arrests of two men accused of trying to disrupt the
Republican National Convention.
"I feel like, as an activist, I played a direct role in stopping violence," Darby, 32, said in an interview with the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Darby's role as a confidential informant in the case leaked out in a pretrial hearing. It was a remarkable transformation for a man known to many
back in Austin as a fiery, grass-roots activist with a mistrust of government.
Darby was key to the investigation of David Guy McKay and Bradley Neal Crowder, both of Austin. The two men are scheduled for federal trial on Jan. 26
for allegedly building Molotov cocktails during the convention. |
Gee, the guy prevents these two a@#$%^&s from fire-bombing the police. Hero? Well ...
REMEMBER THOSE ARRESTS BEFORE THE RNC?

registered to a Robinson Block of Bellaire Texas, presumably the same guy who wrote this letter on Israel. |
Did the Libs and Progs ever condemn these would-be fire-bombers? Or the idiots who planned to kidnap R delegates? Or the the idiots who dumped bags of cement off Minneapolis-St. Paul freeway overpasses in efforts to hinder/injure/kill R
delegates?

| » Franken leads by 50; Coleman battling |

Democrat Al Franken’s lead in the Minnesota Senate race grew to 50 Tuesday after the challenged-ballot phase of the recount came to a close, but a
battle looms over improperly rejected absentee ballots.
The absentee ballots, numbering more than 1,000, appear to be GOP incumbent Norm Coleman’s last hope to swing the result in the state Canvassing
Board’s review of the race, but the process isn’t going smoothly.
Beyond that, the race appears set for a court challenge. The margin stands at a tiny fraction of 1 percent, with nearly 3 million ballots cast.
The initial list of improperly rejected absentee ballots recommended by the state Canvassing Board is thought to favor Franken, potentially expanding
his lead. But Coleman’s recount team is seeking to add another 650 ballots that could push the race in the other direction. |
As I said in the Briefing Room thread today, there is NO WAY anyone could EVER convince me that this is not a STOLEN ELECTION, plain and simple.
The Franken people "found" enough ballots to turn the corner and given Franken the lead. Legal decisions favored Franken.
The horrific thought I have about all this is that the amazing lack of concern about this by the GOP is a frightening scenario for future elections in
this country.

The Canvassing Board overseeing the vote recount for Minnesota’s tightly contested U.S. Senate race isn’t quite done examining disputed ballots,
but the board issued a projection Saturday night that Al Franken will pick up 270 votes when it finishes. Currently the board is determining voter
intent in disputed ballots. If the projection proves correct, Franken will beat incumbent Sen. Norm Coleman by 78 votes.
Vote totals have changed a lot since Nov. 4, when Coleman led Franken by 725 votes. Correcting typos cut Coleman’s margin to 215, and a recount by
all the counties reduced it further to 192. Yet, the additional 270 votes picked up by Franken from the Canvassing Board’s decisions have been among
the most controversial.
The vote pickup has occurred through two actions by the board — divining voter intent and determining what votes should be counted. While decisions
to include missing or overlooked ballots have gotten the most attention, the process of determining intent has also been important in determining the
outcome here. |
One way in which the Canvassing board has been remarkably consistent is in how they determine the intent of questionable ballots. Those that probably
were for Franken are being tallied to Franken. Those that were probably for Coleman are being tallied for Franken too.
The ass holes.

A FOX affiliate in the Washington, D.C., area was able to purchase private information at bargain prices, but it was the information's souce that is
raising eyebrows.
An investigative reporter for WTTG bought two BlackBerry devices containing confidential information -- including the cell number of a former Virginia
governor -- from the McCain-Palin campaign at a "gone out of business" sale at the campaign's headquarters in Arlington, Va.
By the time the reporter got to the sale, most of the good items were gone, the station reports. File cabinets, white boards, sofas — anything the
campaign could sell to get back some of its dough, according to the station's report at MyFOXDC.com.

Sheesh, any organization who'd sell this stuff without first wiping them clean is totally incompetent. With this kind of thinking, it's no wonder
the GOP lost the election.
