Hillary Clinton Does Not Deny Allegations Of Voter Fraud In New Hampshire
One day, the polls predict a double-digit win for Barack Obama, hours later, Sir Hillary Rodham Clinton is celebrating a margin of victory of several thousand votes and a three percentage point win in the Granite State. Most of us were just surprised while others have, apparently, decided to drill down a little deeper into the “surprise victory” by our nation’s First Black Co-President over her rival; the nation’s potential, Third Black President.
“Something STINKS about this victory in New Hampshire.“, say the doubters. “These voting machines“, they rightfully point out, “are the very same voting machines proven to be easily hackable.”
To subscribe to this line of reasoning, one must FIRST accept the far-fetched notion that Senator Queen Clinton could ever do anything deceptive and live peacefully in her own skin. While, once past that fact, we are left only with a small handful of “radical conspiracy theororists”, the Queen’s campaign didn’t do themselves much of a favor when they failed to refute the allegations…
From the Dallas Morning News:
“… Clinton aides did not return calls seeking comment. …”
While I must admit, it doesn’t look that good when an [alleged] felon refuses to deny such a serious accusation, it is, by NO MEANS, a conviction. Remember, my friends — innocent until proven guilty — it’s the American way.
Meanwhile, the most [self] important blogger in the history of important bloggers; guru extraordinairre, and the blogosphere’s equivalent of “the smartest guy in any given room”, the amazing Markos Moulitsas of The Daily Kos, after a way too long moment of silence (thoughtful reflection?) on the subject, finally spoke out to those of us who wait breathlessly for his every word before forming our own opinions:
“… Mr. Moulitsas, who has said he’ll vote for Mr. Obama, also said it was typical of the blogosphere to host a “tiny minority” who pose “wild claims.”
“This is the price you pay for a medium that democratizes media access,” he said. “But really, is that any different than traditional media outlets who pushed the conspiracy theory that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction? A little skepticism from the public in regards to all media would be well advised.” …
Advice taken, good Sir! And thank God you FINALLY weighed in! I didn’t know WHAT to make of this before you brought your Wise Voice Of Reason to the conversation…

New Hampshire resident supporters of Ron Paul should make an official complaint with the NH Secretary of State so the fraud could be investigated.

Sometimes I wish I were part of the great “Left”. If your candidate loses, you claim vote machine fraud. I’d like some rational explanation of how Diebold cheats for Republicans, yet somehow we have a plague of Democrats serving in office.
Just as an aside, if you ( meaning the American Left), want to be taken seriously, lighten up on the vote machine thing. These things came about as a result of the voter fraud from the Kennedy days.

i wonder how many people have ever looked up the word ‘conspiracy’ or its root v.’to conspire’.
it’s a really simple concept, quite like cheating- except it must involve at least 2 people. only naive people think others don’t cheat in life.
people should concern themselves more with ‘coincidence’ theories.
