OK, so dark is a lock, lighter a probable and white is up for grabs but leaning toward the border color. Thanks.

Oh and what the hell was going on here?

"""What Happened to African American Voters?
Even before Election Day was over last year, stories began to circulate about how the rights of black voters were being taken away. Florida, of course, got the most attention, and there were certainly many things that were questionable about the treatment of black voters there. Thousands of punch-card ballots, which were used largely in poor in minority districts, were thrown out. When the names of criminals were removed from voting lists statewide, many legitimate black voters' names were taken off as well, and these voters were turned away when they showed up at the polls. A very controversial police blockade was placed just two miles from a polling place in a heavily African American district. And there were many reports of intimidation and harassment of black voters at the polls themselves. As Florida Congresswoman Carrie Meek said, "The system is not working for us…again." """

From the Brainevent site
Disrimination at the Polls

I wasn't surprised by this news in the LEAST. I remember when I heard of this right after the election and all I could do is shake my head. Ah well.. thanks for the site DanaC.

Are we headed for this in '08? Does anyone think that any of the "safeguards" put in place since then will make any difference?

I've been addicted to "The SteveDallas Random Thread Picker" and found some great threads and even the inspiration for business idea.

Hey now, there will be no lynchings... but you're welcome to shoot the bastard, if you've a mind to.

I'm thinking about keeping my gun loaded with silver bullets in case I come across his path. What a bloated, rich, hypocritical, piece of shit. Someone give that gross pig a razor and some shaving cream for Pete's sake.

Well, if you shoot into everything all around his vital zone, blowing away nothing but fat, he'll be intensely uncomfortable and unhappy, and you still beat a murder rap.

"Everybody I like hates Michael Moore" might be better?
