Oh, what the hell, read this again, then you'll understand why Keith Olbermann had to check on the binding nature of concession speeches

MSNBC -

NEW YORK - Here's an interesting little sidebar of our system of government confirmed recently by the crack Countdown research staff: no Presidential candidate's concession speech is legally binding. The only determinants of the outcome of election are the reports of the state returns boards and the vote of the Electoral College.

I know I am more than curious about why Homeland Security would order a little Southern Ohio hamlet to lock down the vote count. I was wondering if they were using abacuses to tally the punch-cards.

Thus the majority of the media has yet to touch the other stories of Ohio (the amazing Bush Times Ten voting machine in Gahanna) or the sagas of Ohio South: huge margins for Bush in Florida counties in which registered Democrats outnumber registered Republicans 2-1, places where the optical scanning of precinct totals seems to have turned results from perfect matches for the pro-Kerry exit poll data, to Bush sweeps.

This story isn't going away. And it shouldn't. Keith hasn't seen it all either (or at least he's not blogging about it yet). We should be at a stage where the legitimacy of a president is beyond reproach, merely the details of his policy decisions should be subject of debate.

We have not reached that point, and here in Ohio, with the Secretary of State, Ohio's Chief election officer, Ken Blackwell, making a bid to become Governor in '06, it is inexcusable that he spent more time in court dicking around about challengers and provisional ballots, and not making absolutely sure that the vote count was of unquestionable integrity.

This is all the more important considering that Blackwell fully intends to avail himself of Ohio's broken ballot system to sweep him into the Governor's Mansion.

Helli has even more.

And BOP has a Whole Lot More.
And is starting to believe.
