| Kerry: I'll 'Pre-challenge' Florida Vote Count | |
| 2004-03-11 | |
Sen. John Kerry says he doesn't believe in pre-emeptive action against terrorists, but apparently that principle applies only when America's national security is at stake. When it comes to his own political future, the Massachusetts Democrat is taking no such chances. He told a Florida audience this week that he's deploying a legal team to Florida before Nov. 2 in case Republicans try to "steal" the election, in a rerun of the contest Al Gore lost in 2000 by 537 votes. "We're going to pre-check it, we're going to have the legal team in place," Kerry told the Hollywood, Fla., crowd. "We're going to take injunctions where necessary ahead of time. We'll pre-challenge if necessary." Just to be on the safe side, Sen. Kerry might want to get his "pre-concession" speech ready as well.

| #13 This is real? Well this doesn't make The Tin Man sound all that confident does it? The Dems better get one of their SWAT teams down there to pass out the free smokes and Mad Dog to the bums to be on the safe side. That ketchup money will buy a lot of nicotine and cheap hootch. |

| #11 Rex - According to the Firesign Boyz, those are called hot buttered grub clusters. There appears to be confusion with Kerry regards whence they come and whence they go. And, BTW, no - it's not you! You're on-target! ;-> |

| #7 And so the Democrats announce their belief that elections aren't as important as lawyers. If they have success with this... |

| #6 What a tool. It's getting increasingly difficult to deal with the big, steaming, peanut filled, chunks of sphincter fudge that extrudes from his pie hole everytime he speaks. I dunno...is it me? |

| #5 I wonder how Kerry's "Band of Brothers" is going to feel about him when he sends out his mob of lawyers to disqualify every possible absentee military ballot come election time? |

| #4 I suspect it won't be that close this time. I can see Al-Katie Couric and Tom Broken now: "This just in our computer projection shows Florida going to Bush. At this time President Bush has a lead of 200,000 votes. Tom this is hard to beleive". Tom: "What that we've got the news wrong all year?" |

| #1 Rule number one for all Forida elections. Don't let a Democrat design the goddamn ballot in the first place. For all the screwed up things that happened in Florida in 2000 what about all of the votes in Illinois, California and other states that never got counted. |
