So let me get this straight...
1. Diebold has been linked to the anti-Bush leader of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez.
2. Every one of the problems sited in your 'This just in...' addendum shows problems with voting 'Democrat'.
This smacks of Democrats preemptively calling bullshit on the vote; making this the 4th straight election they can blame losing on 'Voter Fraud', rather than 'Not Having A Compelling Platform'.
Vive Le Revolution!!
