Well, no surprise. And not even close to the extreme measures the weird people behind Bush will go to in order to avoid being thrown out of office. They went ballistic when Clinton was elected. They used the hostages in Iran to get Carter out of office - used them as bargaining chips - used them as pawns - allowed them to stay captives for months - just to get Carter out of office.
Nixon stopped at no despicable crime to prevent a Democrat from being elected in 1972. It was only chance that caught him and all his crooks.
Now we are treated to right wingers promoting plans to delay the election. To actually stop democracy. To hold things up until their guy has an edge in the polls. To set up a system that will not even need a terror attack in order to legally delay the election. Who needs conspiracy theories with these guys?
What is next? There will be some traumatic events during the next four months. Why? Because Bush and company are absolutely determined to not be voted out of office. They will go to any extreme to stay in office. Any extreme. It does not bode well for democracy over the next few months.
We have a plan in case of a terror attack. We have our election. Period. On the appointed day. We do not let terrorists dictate to us. We do not let a usurper of the presidential office dictate to us. Our plan is we will not delay our election. These are dark days for our republic.
