Interesting except for the slant bashing Republicans. The Dems controlled both houses of Congress for two years while we also had a Dem President. Why not point that out? Also, as I understand it, there is no way to do what they are saying other than to have an operative in every precinct rigging the vote. Remember these voting results don't go into some national system that can just be rigged.

The results are tabulated by private companies who do not let the public or the government have access to the software. Maybe watch with comprehension in mind?

I think that things are shifting (if they are now) because the Democrats had control of the entire lawmaking system for the United States and didn't accomplish jack shit to change a damned thing the Bush administration did. Except to expand the tyrannical role of the federal government even more (I'll bet you used to complain about that back when Bush was in office, didn't you? I mean every Daily Kos believing liberal did), oh and also they and added another entitlement program (Obamacare) that the public overwhelmingly opposed, and that we cannot afford to pay for.
That said, how the heck do you explain the surge in control when the Dems got elected by an overwhelming majority and controlled it all? They were using the machines then too, but that wasn't rigged? Come on man. Use some common sense.
Republican and Democrat don't mean what they used to at all. They are two sides of the same coin, working for very rich, very powerful people who are really in control. This is why nothing changes.
The powers that are, they don't need to rig an election. That is way too risky. No they have propaganda outlets like Daily Kos and MSNBC and all the rest to shape public opinion and keep politically active people lost in a battle of two sides that are really working together at their core. For those not politically inclined, they work hard to keep them asleep and caring who wins Dancing With the Stars more than they care about who becomes president or controls congress.
The references you cite are propaganda pure and simple.

Hey sorry if you're insulted that I called you a liberal. Some of your other posts would indicate same... Plus you cited an article that claims that because Republicans are winning in dramatic fashion, the elections must be rigged. I responded. The fact that you voted for Bush doesn't mean you didn't post a link to a liberal propaganda piece.
