This doesn't surprise me. It was done on purpose...I don't like Willard but anyone who thinks our "elections" are clean and without cheating is fooling themselves.

I think we may have caught a glimpse of the elusive "reverse Poe's Law" in its natural habitat. Let's not scare it away.

Haha - the OP thinks it's a real story. Hook, line, and sinker.

So, Rear Admiral John Dawes (who, if you google him, only appears in respect to this article) wanted the troops to vote 8 months ago, before Romney was even nominated and ballots were even printed? Interesting. How could the OP be so naive to fall for this story? And I'm being gentle using the word "naive".

It's written very realistically. But the links included in the original article, which are not presented in this thread, to other "stories", give the game away.
