Was the 2004 election stolen? No.

In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn't new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions.

Too Fast?

I'm all for the truth coming to light but it just occured to me that the Rolling Stone article I believe was available online thurs. June 1st. Manjoo rebuts the whole piece a day later. Even if he had access to the Kennedy piece a week earlier it seems amazing that he can research and rebut almost the whole article. And even if he had the voter research results months or a year before, wouldn't it be prudent to go over the facts again?

This article was a rush job and unnecessary. Salon should have waited to do the right piece instead of riding the coattails of Rolling Stone in order to get subscribers. I liked this place before the new editor took over.
