He should have challenged it despite the ramifications he thought it would cause. He should have got a federal injunction and looking back it does make sense why he took so long to come out and make his concession speech. These released Stratfor emails are evident that they knew what Team Obama was up to. One email states this: http://wikileaks.org/gifiles/docs/347043_insight-mccain-5-internal-use-only-pls-do-not-forward-.html "After discussions with his inner circle, which explains the delay in his speech, McCain decided not to pursue the voter fraud in PA and Ohio, despite his staff's desire to make it an issue. He said no. Staff felt they could get a federal injunction to stop the process. McCain felt the crowds assembled in support of Obama and such would be detrimental to our country and it would do our nation no good for this to drag out like last go around, coupled with the possibility of domestic violence. My guy said many were shocked, but after reflecting upon his decision, thought he put the country first."

Has McCain confirmed any of these anonymous third hand rumors? Oh wait no.....sorry Apuzzo....still not the smoking gun you keep hoping for....
After Bushs' fraudulent elections in 2000 & 2004 ... conservatives can never claim election fraud ... that's why they're desperate to re-district and voter-suppress ... and send O'Keefe out to commit election fraud to prove election fraud ...
WTF kinda (*)(*)(*)(*)ing crap (*)(*)(*)(*) there (*)(*)(*)(*) (*)(*)(*)(*) (*)(*)(*)(*) (*)(*)(*)(*) it is? I got news for you, exotix... ~Bush is not running, noone cares about Bush but you Obama bootlicking losers... !@#$%
What a crock of crap. Please explain what was "fraudulent" about EITHER 2000, or 2004.... In 2000, the USSC , thankfully, stopped Sleazocrat attempts to steal the election in FLorida by ILLEGALLY TRYING TO "MAKE VOTES" out of SPOILED BALLOTS, declaring such crap as "dimpled chads", hanging chads" and other such complete nonsense to be "proof of the voters' intent. Read USSC 00-949, and PLEASE, point out what is LEGALLY, or CONSTITUTIONALLY WRONG with that decision. 2004...DEMS caught, in multiples states, guilty of voter fraud. Conversely the Big Qui Tam "Voter Fraud" lawsuit filed by simp socialist RFK,Jr., had NOT ONE PERSON come forward with proof of GOP voter fraud. Spare us the bullcrap ,please, and learn what REALLY HAPPENED, instead of trying to pretend Leftmyth is " factual". It sure isn't the GOP fighting POSTIVE VOTER ID...is it?
LoL why, jeff? WikiLeaks is no longer reliable source for you? But of course the shyster cheated, he could not help himself
He is smart for backing off, he would have been labeled a racist and riots would have ensued if Obama didn't win. And if this is true, which it wouldn't at all surprise me, the liberals would have went into psycho conspiracy mode and said the right did it somehow and blamed bush as well. But considering the left is all about voter fraud and doesn't want to save the integrity of the voting system this would be right up Obamas alley to go with something like this.
The only news you need to know is that after Bush and the neocons ... you won't see another conservative in high-office in your lifetime ... McPalin then Romney ? Are you kidding ?
Further proof that all Democrat voters went to public school......... ......straight from the Party of ACORN, anti-Voter ID, Pro-Vote Fraud. You really need to get out of Imaginationland more often......its good for the body and the mind. . . .
Suddenly... Liberals don't trust Wikileaks? Surprise... Surprise... I wonder if they were Black Panthers working with the Democrats. McCain lost by too much. I don't blame him for letting it go. The real stand up guy was Richard Nixon vs. Kennedy for anyone that knows history. We know that Obama and the Democrats will try to do anything to win. They tried with Al Gore Jr. and their cherry picked districts to recount... they did it with Al Franken and more votes than voters in districts... they did it with the Washington Governor race.... they do it all the time.
I find this post funny since another lib earlier today made a thread where he claimed that Democrats only complained for a few months after the 2000 election and then moved on and were good sports about it. Thank you for proving him wrong.
I have never considered Wikileaks to be reliable- or not reliable. But for those people who bother to go to the actual source document, and read it..... It is an internal email within a private intelligence company, citing a rumor, by unnamed sources. Is the email real? We don't know. Is content correct? We don't even know who is making the claim. What we do know is that John McCain himself, never made the claim. The rest is pure unsubstantiated rumor...the stuff Birthers thrive on.
Oh yeah...Richard Nixon was a real stand up guy.....even tried to stand up for his party by firing the Special Prosecutor who was investigating his re-election parties cover-up of burglary. Got to love who Conservatives consider a real hero.
So an internal email from a security company with absolutely no substantiation is a "bombshell"? This looks like nothing more than two yotes speculating. Anyone who thinks this is anything substantial is a retard. Furthermore, anyone pretending like the Democrats and Republicans are any different from one another is as well. People are just playing right into their hands with that crap.
Jesus Christ. Did you read the "bombshell" evidence? It's two people exchanging private emails. It's not evidence of anything.
What a bunch of BS. Nothing from Mccain on this EVER! And why no local prosecution? These are LOCAL crimes, are yo asserting all the DA in Ohio are Democrats and willing to sanction felony fraud? McCain can't stop that and its not up to him to make those decitions! Simple-minded propaganda idiocy for Fox News watchers! And these violators, if they exist, can still be charged NOW! Cmon, liars, WHERE'S THE BEEF?
