The polls all point to a Democratic sweep in November. The news pours in about pedophile Republicans and Team Bush contempt for their fundamentalist bedmates. Iraq implodes. Deficits soar. Katrina lingers. Scandal is everywhere.
On the other hand, there are rumors of an "October Surprise." An attack on Iran. A new terror incident. Osama finally captured.
Gas prices are down, the stock market up.
None of it dampens the Democrats' euphoria. They think they are about to win. In conventional terms, they should.
But think again. Please.
It will take just two Biblical fixes for the GOP to keep the Congress, and thus solidify their power in this country, possibly forever: a loaves and fishes vote count, a Holy Ghost turnout.
We coined the phrase "loaves and fishes vote count" to describe the tally in Gahanna, Ohio, 2004. This infamous precinct in suburban Columbus registered 4258 votes for George W. Bush where just 638 people voted. The blessed event occurred at a fundamentalist church run by a close ally of the Reverend Jerry Falwell.
These numbers were later "corrected." But they reflect a much larger reality: the 2004 election was stolen with scores of dirty tricks for whose second coming the Democrats have yet to fully prepare.
In the two years since the fraudulent defeat of John Kerry, we've unearthed an unholy arsenal by which that election was stolen. They include: outright intimidation, wrongful elimination of registered voters, theft, selective deployment of (often faulty) voting machines, absentee ballots without Kerry's name on them, absentee ballots pre-punched for Bush, absentee ballots never mailed, touch screens that lit up for Bush when Kerry was chosen, lines for black voters five hours long while white voters a mile away voted in fifteen minutes, tens of thousands of provisional ballots pitched summarily in the trash, alleged ex-felons illegally told they could not vote, Hispanic precincts with no Spanish-speaking poll workers, deliberate misinformation on official web sites...and that's not even the tip of an iceberg whose bottom we may never see.
Thanks to a federal lawsuit, we have finally been able to look at some of the actual ballots from Ohio 2004. Just for starters, researchers Stuart Wright and Dr. Richard Hayes Phillips have found a precinct in Delaware County where 359 consecutive voters allegedly cast ballots for Bush. Dr. Ron Baiman found another precinct in Clermont County where a random inspection found 36 straight replacement ballots, a phenomenon that can be accomplished only by divine intervention or outright fraud.
These initial snippets have been unearthed with no cooperation or participation from the Democratic Party. The official Democratic spin is that they have "looked into the matter." But public records indicate that they have yet to visit the actual ballot storage facilities to examine the public records from the 2004 election.
In sum, we see no indication that the Democrats are prepared for the inevitable...that Karl Rove will steal again, and more, in 2006.
In Ohio alone, four election boards have already eliminated some 500,000 voters since the 2000 election---ten percent of the state's electorate---from the registration rolls in four Democratic counties. No similar purges have occurred in rural Republican counties. The Democrats have said or done very little about it.
To date there is no logical explanation from John Kerry as to why he conceded with 250,000 votes still uncounted while Bush's alleged margin was just half that. Nor have we heard about Democrat plans to monitor the ever-larger numbers of electronic voting machines deployed throughout the United States with no paper trail and no transparency for programming codes and memory cards that are privately owned, with no public inspection allowed.
Which is brings us to the Holy Ghost turnout. As Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., has reported in Rolling Stone Magazine, in Georgia 2002, U.S. Senate incumbent Max Cleland went into Election Day with a very substantial lead in the polls. He proceeded to allegedly lose by a substantial margin. Church-state operatives like Ralph Reed attributed this astonishing turn-around to an alleged last-minute mass turnout of evangelical voters.
Similar things were said about Florida and Ohio 2004.
HARVEY WASSERMAN'S HISTORY OF THE US is available at http://www.harveywasserman.com/, as is A GLIMPSE OF THE BIG LIGHT and clues to the whereabouts of the Holy Grail.
We still have Ken Blackwell running the election, and he did a marvelous job for the Repubs in 2004. Along with whatever transparency can be created, the big job is an overwhelming rejection of these bastards. It's much easier to swing an election of a few point spread versus a 20 point advantage.
In a word: VOTE!

Why does eveyone think this year will be different? They already stole 2 presidential elections (wide scale fraud). You really think they cannot steal House elections (small scale fraud). This is the same group that managed to legalize warrantless wiretaps, suspend habeas corpus, ban books like "America Deceived" from Amazon, detain demonstrators and start 2 illegal wars based on lies. The Republicans will probably lose a few seats to make it look good but maintain a majority. Then they'll invade Iran on behalf of Israel.
Support indy media.

Whoever controls the voting machines can cause more mischief than just ballot-box stuffing to ensure victory. You see, in 2004 the GOP made a big mistake in that virtually every discrepancy that occurred with the machines was in favor of the GOP candidates. Luckily, their stringent control on the Mainstream Media did not allow this to evolve into the issue that it should have.
What I would do if I was an evil GOP mastermind would be to install the same kind of malware that was used last time, but this time have it programmed to favor all of the Democratic candidates. On election morning, the Democrats have taken more seats than they can imagine! But then my dastardly plan unfolds: an American hero comes forth and shows that something wasn't right with the results. The Democratic victory is found to be due to some sort of cheating! A CIA computer team investigation finds that the voting machines contained malware! The self-deleting virus was miraculously preserved on one machine they inspected because of a power outage or some such nonsense. The program bears some kind of signature that links it to a computer owned by the Democratic party! Elections are held again for all districts that use machines. Republicans win in a landslide because who wants to elect a bunch of cheaters!
Get it? It's false-flag election fraud! A November surprise!

In his autobiography, "Will," G. Gordon Liddy tells the inside story of the Republican convention during the Nixon years.
Liddy relates how "Ken Rietz" was trouping around with a group of children who were "Servicing" the Politicians who so desired a piece of young weiner. Liddy goes on to say that this group Rietz was spreading around was known as the "Kiddies Club."
The corporate gangster elite want service from the political elite, and so they send out the "Kiddies" to help make our political elite "Compliant."
This is but one suggestion as to why the Democrats have yet to say anything about 2 stolen elections in a row.
Politicians from both sides of the aisle are basically a bunch of "Pee Pee Weiner heads."
