Credits: 60 Spent time on board: 18:52:07 Hours Rep Power: 18      | Most of those provisional ballots were going to be counted, but Kerry conceded for the sole purpose to help reunite the nation, instead of having it split like it was in 2000. But since nobody knew about this story yet, everyone thought Bush was gaining an edge over Kerry, hence, Kerry conceded. I'm pretty sure many of Bush's votes were artificial. If not, most of those provisional ballots were going to Kerry anyway. According to many past provisional ballots, they usually go democratic. But we will never know now, will we? |

I actually think Kerry did the right thing by conceding, not saying Bush is better, but I think he realized that it would of been kind of risky to go for it. I mean, 152,000/160,000 votes for Kerry is taking a risk isn't it? |

and i don't know what news stations you watch nubli but just about every station ive seen were huge kerry supporters. all they talked about was kerry and almost all the ads on the station were for kerry. In a very large majority of the polls before the election bush was on top. Bush won the popular vote as well as the electoral vote so obviously he didnt cheat. of course this isnt a surprise to me I knew right away when bush won every democrat and their brother would start accusing him of cheating. I live in a town that is extremely democratic and i hear bullshit accusations like this all the time. Its like when they started saying Bush wore a wire at the debates. It's just stupid. Why can't anyone ever just admit that he won. There is always an bs excuse when a Republican representative does something good. Seriously, get a life. bush won. deal with it. | |

Credits: 60 Spent time on board: 18:52:07 Hours Rep Power: 18 | UPDATE: Kerry still has a chance to win even though he conceded defeat! It turns out that there is a good 160,000 provisionals left to be counted in a certain county in Ohio. Kerry would need some 130,000 of those to win Ohio. Is it likely? No. But, that county is very democratic, so theres a very good chance that once those are counted and the Electoral College thingy is held in December, we could very well see a new president! This makes me really happy :P 4sylum the stations I refer to are Fox (duh!), abc, cnn, nbc, and possibly a few others. All the big name companies heavily support Republicans. Quote:
Most of these accusations are not bullshit. And that thing about Bush at the debate with the wire, it was true. Yet the media supressed it. The story got out but was basically "forgotten" quicker than it was aroused. | |

And to Nubli: According to your original post, your sources are not convincing. And to say the 5 mainstream news channels are Republican is just misleading all on its own. It's common knowledge that media is very very liberal. I'm done now, you guys are allowed to scratch your heads and continue to wonder just how you lost.. | |

Credits: 100 Spent time on board: - Rep Power: 5 | this is the first time ive heard of a conservative bias in EVERY major news organization. Isnt it actually the other way around? (excluding Fox) Do people really believe these massive conspiracy theories and collaboration between grossly different industries? Was there even a way for bush to legitmately win? I think you would have cried foul on any victory. I read your article and it seems a bit rash to instantly declare that massive fraud occured based simply on exit poll results and on "hard evidence" from FOIA requests. They say themselves they just launched some of the largest in history; are we supposed to forget the fact there is no way to analyze that much information in only 2 days? what exactly are they basing there claims on? Have they already performed detailed statitistical analysis of information they in all likelihood dont even have yet. Im afraid the logic has too many gaping holes to be reliable. I would never cite this site in a serious academic situation; so why should I lend to credibilty now? |

Credits: 100 Spent time on board: - Rep Power: 5 | "160,000 provisionals left to be counted in a certain county" Man, I am originally from Ohio.......which county is this? I do believe that was the total amount for the entire state, but anyhow, folks from Ohio have lost over 200,000 jobs since Bush took office.... But guess what.....they still voted for him again versus the uncertain wish-wash of Mr Kerry. Better 200K without jobs then the entire state without jobs. Nubli, please dont believe everything you read |

Credits: 376 Spent time on board: 5 Days and 1:01:38 Hours Rep Power: 14 | True Silver but the media in general is very liberal. Most celebrities are liberal and most TV organizations. Hell around here we refer to CNN as the Clinton New Network. Fox is the only truly conservative network out there. And I'm really sick of hearing "Cheater!" everytime you guys lose now...pointing fingers didn't work in 2000 and it wont work now. Also the media isn't suppressing it Nubli they would crack this story in an instant if it had any truth to it to increase their ratings.
