Theft of the 2008 Election
A short film by Greg Palast about how John McCain could steal this year's presidential election, using a variety of vote-rigging and voter suppression tactics.
To hear Palast and his boy Bobby Kennedy, Jr. tell it, that's how George W. Bush won in 2000 and 2004. Palast discussed the supposed theft of the 2000 and '04 elections in his books The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, and Armed Madhouse. And Bobby Jr. did a famous story in Rolling Stone about how Bush stole the '04 election.
(By the way, does anyone know what's wrong with Bobby Jr.'s voice? And is that why he's an environmentalist or some such rather than an elected official? Damn.)
