(3,194 posts)Those people who use the argument that this somehow diminishes Obama's win, or takes away from all the hard work, are completely missing the point.
If this story is true, all that happened was essentially a validation of Obama's victory.
How does this in any way take away from the Democratic victory, any more than poll watchers or exit polls take away from it?
There is nothing to suggest that Anon, if they did in fact do something, did anything to alter the results or sway the election. They merely claim to have prevented Rove and his cronies from doing so.
Perhaps if Karl got up and said, "yeah, you got me, I tried to rig it for Rmoney, but got caught," then some might begin to accept the mere possibility something like this occurred.
And if you think Rove, and all his henchmen, are not capable of pulling something like this off, you haven't been paying attention these past 15+ years.
