I have commented previously about columnist William Raspberry's column in which he implies that George Bush stole the 2004 election via vote fraud in ... Ohio. He makes this astonishing admission:
"I'd been waiting for Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) to tell me what to think about the voting irregularities that marred the November elections in Ohio."
Keep in mind that the margin in Ohio was well over 100,000 votes. And keep in mind that there are NO reputable people who believe that that lead can be overcome. Yet, to the Raspberry's of this world, EVIL REPUBLICANS are out stealing elections.
Even John Conyers, Raspberry's brain on matters of election fraud, is careful to avoid saying that there was actual fraud:
"Please understand, this is not an attempt to change the outcome. Many of the complaints were from people who couldn't be sure what they saw, or who were able to vote anyway, despite the difficulty. And there's no way we could count the number of people who left those cold, rainy lines after the second or third hour of waiting."
So we have the evidence of people who are not sure of what they saw, and were able to vote, with a dark hint that others were not as lucky. Based on that reasoning, I am persuaded that William Raspberry is actually one of the evil stepsisters who gave Cinderella such a bad time. After all have you seen Raspberry and the evil stepsister in the same room at the same time? Proof!!
Let us consign "Landslide Johnson" and Chicago's Daley machine to the memory hole. Let's not remember that certain inner city districts in Philadelphia regular produce more votes than voters.
Let us turn our attention to the race for Governor of Washington State. There the margin has been 50 votes until they "found" a few thousand new votes in overwhelmingly Democratic King County, swinging the vote count to the Democrats - on the third recount. Here's a good summary of the action from the Wall Street Journal's John Fund. Wanna bet there's a Raspberry column in the works? Not.
