It's The Voting Machine's Fault, Says McKinney!
Somehow, you just knew that Cynthia McKinney HAD to end up blaming her election loss on the Republicans.

It COULDN'T be that she's an unstable jackass, who is nothing short of an idiot. It HAD to be the Republicans' fault.

Well Jefferson, which is it, is she blaming the Republicans or the electronic voting machines?

In her concession speech on election night, McKinney blamed her defeat on the news media and electronic voting machines. She continued to criticize both Tuesday.
"You won't know who won as long as we have those electronic voting machines, with the problems that have been manifested by them," she said, criticizing Georgia officials for not requiring that paper records be kept of all votes.
She also blamed her loss in part on Republican crossover voting. She said open primaries _ where voters can choose to vote in either party's primary election, regardless of how they are registered _ should not be allowed.





If you actually read the link you would see she pretty much blames everybody for her loss....Electronic voting machines and Republicans included

Didn't I say that the story wasn't complete without her analysis of the situation?

Now we know. And those damn Congressional hill security guards probably helped...

She's a maggot. Whatever it takes to get rid of people like her in public office I'm for it. People like her are poison in the drinking water. She doesn't care one little bit about America. Look at the thugs who around here on election night. Scum.

She has a point with those diebold machines

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
