Tom Matzzie: How McCain Will Steal the Election from Obama (Sort Of)

The floundering right-wing coalition is on the verge of collapse due to a combination of poor performance in office and an incoherent message coming from a candidate whose plans change with every day, and whose only constant is the uninterrupted stream of baseless partisan attacks. This is a description of how the GOP seems poised to poison the civil society with the fabricated idea that this election was the result of fraud, instead of the result of the failure of George W Bush to lead the nation. This is exactly the tactic that was used to try to undermine the JFK presidency with the same stories. Since then, a recount showed no fraud. Study after study showed no fraud. Then, just like now, the charges were a smokescreen.
