Was the 2004 election stolen? No.

    Was the 2004 Election Stolen?

    The sad truth that Mr. Manjoo tries to deflect through his many recontructed events vis a vis the Robert Kenedy article is that indeed, the election was stolen. He is a journalist trying, hoping that the better angels of the world will take us away from the truth that the country and the administration are fraudulant and have careened us down a negative path that has resulted in the death and maiming of it's own citizens and innocents abroad and disengendered us to peoples the world over. I am afraid it is true, and that the arguments Manjoo lays out do not refute very soundly those of Mr. Kennedy, a truth teller and I would add, an excellent candidate for POTUS in 08 or 2012.
