The Morning Journal on the interminable accusations of fraud here in Ohio:
They have met the enemy, but don't recognize that he is their imagination.Our wish is that they'd take their voting conspiracy hallucinations underground. Abandon us, please, so we can get on with life.
Bush won. Kerry lost.
Lorain County recounted. Other counties recounted, and others are recounting, and nothing has changed.
Nothing changed, because nothing was wrong. (Except for those who now fear the recount itself is rigged. For them, please go to deepest mineshaft and await the impending end of democratic civilization as you fear it.)
...
Those, like Jesse Jackson and Rep. John "call in the FBI" Conyers (D-Michigan), who encourage unfounded conspiracy-itis for their own self-aggrandizement are contemptible. And those Democrats and demagogues who refuse to recognize reality, no matter how you count it, do America a disservice by wasting our tax money cutting away at the fabric of an election system that works fine.
