Heh. He's got a guy on staff whose specialty is electronic voting systems, especially, subverting them.

I do think paper voting/counting is still superior, until some sort of fail-proof system arrives. However, I believe the systems should always be under the control of locales. Rigged voting in bad enough in large urban areas, now. If it was all centralized in DC, we would never have another fair vote.

I believe Obama will win, and things will become awful becuase he will have a largely left-wing nut-job congress pushing him toward the actual implementation his collectivist theories. Perhaps things will improve during his third year, when congress becomes "real" small gov't conservatives, again.

In the meantime, if McCain does pull an upset today, don't blame him. Blame the d*mn media for advocating so much for B.O. and getting up your hopes.......bobford
