Mexican Left Demands Recount
Has Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador joined the U.S. Democratic party?
Lopez Orbrador is demanding a recount in Sunday's Mexican presidential election, and is threatening the organization of street protests if the recount is not done.
If you can't win the hearts and minds of the voters, then do your best to manipulate the results.

"If you can't win the hearts and minds of the voters, then do your best to manipulate the results."
A Bush supporter should know all about that, since that's how you guys won the last two presidential elections in this country. Apparently, the PDR in Mexico has more huevos than the Dems do here, because they're not letting the IRP or PAN "manipulate the results". More power to 'em. Maybe if they're successful it will set an example for us and then Repugs won't get to "manipulate the results" here anymore.

I love how all these voting machines and ballots worked fine when Clinton won with only 43% of the vote in 92.
I guess, as IB suggests, we should have demanded endless recounts, taken to the streets and say the machines were rigged.
Then we should have tried to change the rules after the election saying that the "majority of the country" didn't want clinton since 57% voted AGAINST him.
Alas, we are not little brats who throw tantrums when we don't get what we want.

My question is why in 2000 and 2004 there was ONLY problems in democrat heavy counties run by democrats and only in states that would overturn the election?
