If anybody can come up with another explanation of why the Republicans would want to kill this bill, I'm all ears.

Counting votes leaves less time for hot gay sex.

I believe the clinical term for this is Autoerotic Afixedelection.

God I hate those people. HATE THEM.
Posted by: bitchphd at April 25, 2008 07:38 PMI say we lock the Congress in a Thunderdome style cage, and give them sharp, post-apocalyptic makeshift bladed weaponry and iron studded heavy metal costume armor.
Then let them duke it out. The last five or so left alive we can allow to rule the country.
Posted by: Jon at April 25, 2008 09:54 PMRepublicans think they know everything when it comes to elections and think of every sly thing they can do to stop democrats from taking the seat. This pisses me off when they do crap like this. The fact that they want to steal an election makes no sense at all, period! Remember the 2000 election that George W. Bush stole from the Democratic Party? Al Gore got more votes than Bush but somehow the election was given to him.

Posted by: Gaijin Biker at April 26, 2008 12:33 PMUm, do the Republicans have majorities? Would Bush veto this bill? Why don't Democrats pass bills that THEY want?
I certainly don't trust the Republicans, other than to continue to be the lying, win-at-all-costs thieves that they have shown themselves to be.
But states are perfectly capable of spending the money they want on their own voting systems.
Posted by: TokyoTom at April 28, 2008 01:58 AMI think electronic voting machines are a terrible idea, regardless of whether or not they print an audit trail. How does this assure us that each key stroke or screen touch is valid? Id rather see mandatory paper ballots.
Posted by: Joel at April 28, 2008 09:59 AMIf a state hasn't implemented one by now, they either waited too late or figured they didn't need one.
When you say "they", who do you mean, exactly?

Good grammatical catch! "..their legislature" would have been more accurate.
Of course, anyone schooled in biblical esoterica knows that the Antichrist was a symbol for the Roman Emperor Nero.
He died 1900 years ago. Duh. So this discussion is all nonsense.

Probably no because how could the bill die?
Thats imposible!
