Can you really call it an election?
First time in a long time a contestant to Putin's party looks to have a legitimate shot to win. Putin apparently is declaring victory before the votes counted. Have to wonder if thats posturing or if the fix is in.
Can you really call it an election?
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A few days before Russia's presidential election, Sergei Smirnov received a phone call from a man who called himself Mikhail and told him the terms of the deal: you will vote for Vladimir Putin four times and receive 2,000 roubles ($70) in return.
The sum was promised to dozens of other young men and women who met on Sunday outside a popular fast food joint on the southwest fringe of Moscow, waiting to be taken to various polling stations in the province that rings the capital.

There have been stories all over the place of Putin paying 'supporters' for rallies across the country and busing them into Moscow. The think that struck me is that this is the closest that an opposition has had to winning since i can remember.
one downside to habitually inflating the margin of electoral victory is that unexpectedly close wins look like losses
Bet ACORN is over there taking notes on how Putin steals an election.
Step one is to be the one holding power, so it's pretty safe to say Acorn has a ways to go.
Yeah, sure. Right along with SEIU. We shall see shortly. That big smile on Dear
Leaders face isn't because of his public support at this point. I should say
smirk.
what ACORN anyway? I thought they lost their federal funding and disassociated.
XZ in hear beating Breitbart/OKeefe's dead horse ACORN, which committed no crimes, other than to try to help poor people.
Right boutons, just a public service agency.
"ACORN's "shock troops" have been linked to or convicted of perjury, forgery, iden y theft and election fraud in recent years and now are facing investigation for alleged violations of federal election law in 12 states, according to a new report from Matthew Vadum, a senior editor for the Capital Research Center. Vadum, whose work with the Research Center includes studies of non-profit organizations, has released a report led "ACORN: Who Funds the Weather Underground's Little Brother?" do enting the troubled past and current problems facing the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now."

Now since you are up, go on down and get your unemployment check.
xray doesn't know about ACORN or "alleged" fraud.
lol shock troops
Coach, Acorn hasn't existed for nearly two years.
Not here - in Russia with the other Nazis you idiot!
As the inspector you are chump, I will let your "one liner" speak for itself.
Like I said, anything over a one liner for you is a real chore for your
poor old addled brain.
Tell us how many federal vote fraud convictions the Bush administration secured after making it a priority.
Show everyone how much you know about this.
Never acknowledge what they have done, blame it on the Bush administration and
change the subject.
Look it up yourself. The exercise will help your ability to think for yourself.
I wasn't blaming the Bush administration for vote fraud. If anything, I applaud them for finally establishing just how much a problem vote fraud really is.
I already looked it up. I just wanted to confirm you didn't know about it.Look it up yourself. The exercise will help your ability to think for yourself.
Thanks for letting us all know you are ignorant.
^^^^^our resident inspector. Give him a hand for his brilliant one liners...
Don't get angry because you don't know.
I believe you are able to look it up. It just seems you prefer remaining ignorant.
weird how all the Big Government shock troops are mysteriously unfamiliar with the notches in Mr. Breitbart's belt: ACORN and Shirley Sherrod.
almost dropped a "Secret Marines" zoogz rift youtube on this, but refrained.
wasn't a close call, tbh.
the war is over, xray. your side annihilated ACORN.
was there no kegger to commemorate the happy day? you still seem not to be aware that that ACORN now roams among the shades of history, not among the living.
Has been disbanded; is defunct. Is thus no longer a threat to the integrity of US elections and has not been for quite some time.
Why are you still talking about it? Please turn the page....
