Mais 24 horas...

Ainda não nos podemos descontraír. Sem dúvidas nenhumas sobre a moralidade das próprias intenções, os republicanos vão fazer os possíveis por envenenar o dia de amanhã. Lembram-se das fraudes de há 8 e 4 anos?

Felizmente, há esquemas em que o tiro saiu pela culatra:

«We asked about the insanely long lines, and whether that would hamper
voting. First, we learned, Barack Obama has "Comfort Teams," which are
all volunteer forces who don't campaign, but simply bring water, hot
chocolate and snacks. "No campaigning, no materials," Adelman said,
just making sure the people who have to wait in long lines aren't
hungry or thirsty.

Second, McCain voters, who exist in smaller percentages in Obama-heavy
precincts, may not have the same determination to spend all day in
line the way Obama's voters have shown. That's the flip side of
Republican failure to provide enough voting machines in
Democratic-heavy districts when Democratic voters refuse to be
deterred. It hurts some Republican vote as well, particularly since
Republican base enthusiasm for John McCain (Huckabee won the
Republican primary) is tepid at best.

What Adelman has already seen in terms of voter determination and
quiet peace at the long lines, she admitted, had already brought her
and other staff to tears a time or two. "Mayor Franklin and
Congressman Lewis have been helping encourage people to stay in line,"
and 50-60 people in metro Atlanta alone have helped with the Comfort
Teams.»

Espero que sim. Mas se Obama ganhar começa hoje a campanha de Karl Rove para o fazer pagar o atrevimento... Viram a cara feliz com que Rove anunciou "a landslide for Obama"?

:o)

Tárique:

Peço desculpa, não contextualizei. O texto que citei relata um episódio que ocorreu na Georgia. Nesse estado é que Huckabee foi vencedor.
