Steve,

No doubt some people feel that way. My comment was none of the Democrats I know.

One positive of the election is that the rise of blogs, phonecams, & email networks makes it almost impossible for either party to attempt a lot of the fraud, vote supression, etc. (as praticed by both parties). Information just flows too freely now. Its very difficult to operate in the darkness in the information age.

None of the Democrats I know are claiming this election was stolen. They think Bush's reelection is tragic for our country, but I don't hear anyone saying he cannot claim a legit win.

The one silver lining I draw from the election is that we did not have another train wreck like 2000. BTW I hold Gore to be more to blame for the 2000 fiasco then Bush. His too-hasty concession and attempts to cherry-pick a recount were terrible mistakes..

The sad thing is that this idiotic commotion is distracting the press from a valid point -- electronic voting systems are buggy, hackable, and not exactly accurate. All of us in the IT industry have been shaking our heads in frustration at the piss-poor job the states, election boards, and Diebold have done.

Trading expedience in vote counting for accuracy is just downright stupid. We need to look elsewhere for solutions (e.g. a national voter database) to this problem.
