"Latest Conspiracy Theory -- Kerry Won"
Mood:  energetic
Now Playing: FSU-NC State football
Topic: Politics
The Washington Post takes a look at the conspiracy theories abounding on the liberal side of the blogosphere:
"Even as Sen. John F. Kerry's campaign is steadfastly refusing to challenge the results of the presidential election, the bloggers and the mortally wounded party loyalists and the spreadsheet-wielding conspiracy theorists are filling the Internet with head-turning allegations. There is the one about more ballots cast than registered voters in the big Ohio county anchored by Cleveland. There are claims that a suspicious number of Florida counties ended up with Bush vote totals that were far larger than the number of registered Republican voters. And then there is the one that might be the most popular of all: the exit polls that showed Kerry winning big weren't wrong -- they were right.

"Ultimately, none of the most popular theories holds up to close scrutiny. And the people who most stand to benefit from the conspiracy theories -- the Kerry campaign and the Democratic National Committee -- are not biting."
Of course polls are more accurate than the actual vote!! Sheesh. And they say Bush supporters are ignorant and deluded.
