It was a tough battle, hard-fought in the trenches of Lowell. It was looking pretty bleak when I first answered the call to visit a web site and vote. Not twenty minutes later, I received a call to duty as the frantic, disbelieving words of astonishment rang all too true. How is this possible, that comments attached to the internet poll were so dead set negative against one candidate, yet the vote was overwhelmingly in her favor? Yes, that’s right. Not one good word about Obama-installed Democrat Senate Candidate, yet there it was in red and blue, 70-30 in her favor. I really hate to disappoint the rabid, mini-minded people who ran up the totals, took an ALT-PRT SCREEN shot and published it somewhere as truth be told, that Warren had bested Brown in a poll. I’m sure everyone over there at the Dem HQ and Bunker were mighty pleased with themselves. They pulled off an Internet coup and the media would be all agog in the AM over the unthinkable victory. There will be good cheer this New Year’s Eve, something to think about, and Mr. Brown will just have to suck it up and go home a loser. No Republican will sit in Kennedy’s seat. No siree Bob! At that time, I realized what had gone wrong. It was a chance to show the world what it is we are talking about when we say Voter Fraud. Nearly every time this is spoken, the opposition protests in a sanctimonious blather that will make you sick. ‘Oh, there’s no fraud’ they say. Why of course, no charges, no proof, no evidence, no case, and no precedent; what did you expect? I suppose I would have to show them how it is done. If I’m lucky, they will finally put an end to the verbal garbage. Do they really think that a poll worker can ‘show up’ after the police had locked the doors to City Hall and claim he had two boxes of ballots that were not counted? Why, we couldn’t disenfranchise the voters, so of course they were admitted, counted and jumbled with the rest of the legally cast votes. Who would know? We do. This happened in Minnesota to eventually elect Al Franken as Senator. The irony is that the comedian won and this is no joke. So last night, I set about a means to trash the Worcester Telegram Brown/Warren Poll. I could care less who commissioned it, had it been truthful, cross-sectional and valid, it would not make a difference. However, Brown’s total went from 13% advantage to a 40% disadvantage in about 23 minutes and that is when I went to work. I would tell you the details, but it would bore you to tears. It shouldn’t be possible, though it is a simple poll and shouldn’t be worth a poot, yet if you consider for a fleeting moment that this is done in a worthless poll, just what could be accomplished when the chips are down, it’s the real thing, and some friendly, in-the-bag, appointed judge will have the last word on any recount or challenge. Yes, this calls for a demonstration and you should be rightfully angered that they have gone as far as to permit EARLY VOTING as well as relaxed the rules on absentee voting. When that doesn’t work, there seems to be a dozen or a dozen-dozen ballots that just happen to be filled out for the Democrat in the race that were either misplaced, or hidden under some belly-button lint in plain sight. Republicans have been too gentle with the argument. Election reform needs to be done and I propose a deadline to which the seal upon the box is applied and no other ballots will be admitted. After inventory of the boxes, no others will be added in any way, shape or form. Extra votes will be discarded without consideration and further, the first dope that starts bemoaning the process will be taken out back and shot. To be nice, an all-or-nothing approach can be used where we scrap them all and do it again tomorrow. Sooner or later, somebody will get rightfully ticked off and vote for themselves instead of letting that jerk do it for them. There is more, but I’m just angry right now. I began voting often in the on-line poll and was quick to adjust my approach to increase my rate of voting to about seven per minute. This would be enough if there were a team of people all working the same scheme, but there wasn’t time to explain all the changes necessary to the browser settings that would permit the charade to work. For some, the manual process is all too foreign and they quickly tire. Dedication aside, I was able to bump up my tally to a whopping 24-votes per minute, though there is a bit of time necessary in between steps that make that assertion as bogus as on-line polling. Acting alone, for an hour and a half, I was able to tip the scales back in Brown’s favor and calling it quits at 10:45AM, I am very happy to announce that Senator Scott Brown beat Democrat Senate-wannabe Warren 51-49. Yes, I’ve rounded off the totals, but the clear statistic here will escape even the Worcester Telegram for a while to come. There is no way that 7900 people would cast a ballot in any of their polls, regardless of how important it would be to them or anyone for that matter. I will also note that the advertising aspect of on-line activity is important, so if the Telegram so much as tries to point to 7900 visits to the Brown/Warren page and jack up their pricing, it will not bode well for them and in fact it should not. I will say that the Ford advertisement was cute, but that is because they have attractive automobiles and DID NOT TAKE A GOVERNMENT BAILOUT. I have my principles you see
