Elaine: You wanted to see me, Mr. Lippman?

Lippman: I was just going over the Jake Jarmel book and I understand you worked with him very closely.

Elaine: Yes, krhm, yes I did.

Lippman: And, anyway I was just reading your final edit, um, there seems to be an inordinate number of exclamation points.

Elaine: Well, I felt that the writing lacked certain emotion and intensity.

Lippman: Oh, "It was damp and chilly afternoon, so I decided to put on my sweatshirt!"

Elaine: Right, well...

Lippman: You put exclamation point after sweatshirt?

Elaine: That's that's correct, I-I felt that the character doesn't like to be ch-ch-chilly...

Lippman: I see, "I pulled the lever on the machine, but the Clark bar didn't come out!" Exclamation point?

Elaine: Well, yeah, you know how frustrating that can be when you keep putting quarters and quarters in to machine and then *prrt* nothing comes out...

Lippman: Get rid of the exclamation points...

Elaine: Ok, ok ok ...

Lippman: I hate exclamation points...

Elaine: ...ok I'll just....

On election night the Kerry campaign said there were 250,000 votes left to be counted and when they were counted they would show that Kerry won the state of Ohio. The next day it turned out that there were only 155,000 provisionals, not 250,000. Kerry supporters claimed he would get the vast majority of those and make up the difference. Turned out that only 125,000 or so of the provisionals were even valid and out of those Kerry netted about 17,000 votes. Next, they pointed to 90,000 votes in certain Cuyahoga precincts that exceeded the number of registered voters (failing to realize that these were absentee votes that were collected and assigned to a specific precinct instead of allocating them across all precincts).

So now they want to recount all the votes because they can't seem to grasp the fact that some of the people who voted in OH didn't like any of the candidates but still wanted to vote for other statewide issues and/or couldn't figure out how to properly punch their ballots. Either way, if you give every single one of these non-votes to Kerry (there are approximately 93,000 of them) he would still lose OH by about 26,000 (about the same margin that Carter and Clinton won OH by BTW).

The libs blame the machines (while refusing the acknowledge that Kerry won the nomination on the same machines eight months earlier), they blame the count (despite the fact that OH uses a system where two GOP and two DEM representatives collectively count the votes), they blame the exit polls (that only showed a discrepancy in the early data - not the final data), they blame "irregularities" (but can't show how they would change the results).

Frankly, I'm all for the recount...the more the Dems can draw out their own misery the better I say.

These are from 2000, but they still work:

Clement Moore...

'Twas the month before Christmas,
when all through the courts,
All the plaintiffs made
stirring bad ballot reports.
Which leaves the problem:
Perhaps the best way to stop complaints
that are raucous is
Start over again, with the Iowa caucuses.

or Dr. Seuss...

I cannot count them in a box
I cannot count them with a fox
I cannot count them by computer
I will not with a Roto-Rooter
I cannot count them card-by-card
I will not 'cause it's way too hard
I cannot count them on my fingers
I will not while suspicion lingers.
I'll leave the country in a jam -
I won't count ballots, Sam-I-Am.
