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.

    wrong

    This person obviously didn't even bother to read the originating article at rollingstone.com ...

    Perhaps, but the dead-tree version of RS, which I read, does not have links, for obvious technological reasons. You have to take it on faith that Kennedy cites the sources fairly. And as Manjoo has pointed out, Kennedy cherry-picks the facts that suit his purposes while ignoring those that don't--all within the same report.

    My point stands
