    California wasn't the only state that saw voter confusion at the ballot box... There was "invisible ink" and two few election judges in Chicago (not to mention snow through much of the rest of Illinois), broken voting machines in New Jersey, voters' names missing off registration lists in Arizona, too few ballots in CA and in New Mexico, to name a few... Check the link for all the details.

  • Why are you plugging Rocky Delgadillo? Wanted to get out of a traffic violation? DUI maybe? Did you get caught with some narcotics and didn't want to go to the poky for it? This rises to the level of propaganda you know?

    The question isn't whether Rocky talked to the county registrar, but why aren't you? Excuse me, but there's something brown on the end of your nose - oh, I see, it's about getting your face on.

    My cat would like to comment on the double bubble situation, think you can come over and interview him to?

    I'd put this in the irrelevant file.

  • Hopefully, all voting machines and paper votes were counted correctly through the 22 states in the primary last night. That being said this is why I voting and I'm pulling for Hillary. I'm hoping Hillary wins the nomination because I think a vote for Obama is a vote for Ted Kennedy and Obama will be his protege.

    Experience is more important to me than fresh, cute or new or a group gatherer. With Ted Kennedy behind Obama we're really not getting new or fresh ideas.

    I still wonder if Obama actually voted correctly his intent when he voted no for the war. I wonder if he meant to vote yes and made a mistake and is now using that mistake to his favor against Hillary. This is why..

    It was revealed to me during the Nevada debate that Obama needed some voting lessons and he got them that evening from Hillary and Edwards. It was revealed that Obama voted "present" 100 times. Hillary pointed out that "present" means "maybe". Obama then said that he didn't like something stated in the bills. And Edwards enlightened Obama by saying if you don't like something in a bill you should vote "no" not "maybe". Then there was another ocassion that night that made it clear to me that Obama didn't know how to vote on bills while in the Senate for one whole year (before he declared himself presidential material). Hillary and Edwards had voted "yes" for a bill that put a ceiling on the interest amount that credit card companies could charge people with balances. Obama thought the interest rate was too high and voted "no". Where then, according to Edwards, Obama just lifted that ceiling and allowed credit card companies to charge even more. Hillary and Edwards thought the interest rate of 30% was high too, but it still put a ceiling on it until a better bill could come forward for a vote. Bills can be tricky and that is where Hillary's experience comes into play. It's the president's altimate job to sign off and finalize bills into law by voting yes or no. So it's imperative that the president know how to vote. I wonder if he meant to vote in favor of the war but voted no by mistake and is now using that to his benefit to go after Hillary.

    And recording Hillary's voting "yes" for the war. She and others voted yes to patriotly give Bush the okay to use his good judgement when considering the facts of the forthcoming investigations which Bush ended up manipulating to his favor. Their vote didn't matter alfter all because Bush was intent to go to war and did. So there you are!

  • You are taking this opportunity to change subjects and plug your notion of what's good for the rest of us - Hill-Billary. Alright, all we need is another Janet "Burn 'em" Reno in Washington and a women President easily manipulated by propaganda.

    Your assessment of Obama is purely subjective and speculative - as though Edwards or Hill-Billary's subjective perception of what was in Obama's mind meant squat. To my knowledge, us humans haven't perfected mind reading yet, have you?

    What bothers me is that they, or you would attribute your thoughts and motivations to another - and that you are willfully victimizing Obama for personal selfish gain. It's dangerous and violates us all. What does that say of you, or your choice of candidates?

    You sound like a Ripusoffican actually.

  • WhyTuesday, you could have asked Delgadillo some relevant questions like how he can rationalize prosecuting average folk for driving a day on a suspended license while letting his wife do it for years? You could ask if he and she are above the law maybe? When is she going to be prosecuted and do her time like the rest of us little folk?

    You could have asked him when he said there wasn't going to be a two tiered legal system in Los Angeles, if he meant it was to be a three tier legal system to cover himself and his wife?

    How about asking him if he's suppressed any exculpatory evidence YET today? Tampered with or put forth evidence and testimony he knows to be fabricated YET today?

    Ask if he's been involved in intimidation or death threats of witnesses or defendants YET today?

    Then, why don't you ask him how it was he was saving the city money by not paying out for: false imprisonment; use of excessive force; wrongful death; wrongful prosecution; actions of corrupt public servants without actually fixing any of the problems?

    Ask, how did he figure preventing victims from receiving compensation was a just thing to do to the people of Los Angeles?

    Ask him to explain how any of this is any different than what the criminals on the streets from which he came do?

    Ask him how preying on celebrities to gain media exposure isn't predatory? Ask him why it shouldn't be done to him?
