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.

    The real problem is...

    not that Bush & company stole Ohio (or FL in '00). The real problem (as pointed out by my 18 year old son) is that Gore & Kerry both ran such inept campaigns that Bush was able to get close enough to steal both elections by supressing a few thousand votes each time.

    Instead of blaming Jeb, Blackwell, Diebold or Nader, we should look at our candidates and ask why they weren't able to administer a well-deserved electoral ass-kicking to an blatantly unqualified and inept candidate/president.
