The other inconvenient truth


In an explosive article in Rolling Stone today, Robert Kennedy Jr. makes the following statement about the 2004 presidential election:
"After carefully examining the evidence, I've become convinced that the president's party mounted a massive, coordinated campaign to subvert the will of the people in 2004."

He talks at great length about why the final results puzzled exit pollers whose findings showed John Kerry had a commanding lead.
That election night, I "watched" the results come in, not on TV network news but on the Democrat and Republican blogs. There was an unbridled giddyness in the Kerry blogger camp when they compared exit polls across the country. And I remember the source of that joy was the fact that it looked like Ohio was "in the bag."
It will be interesting to see what is stirred up by Kennedy's article. These days nothing out of Washington would surprise me.
