    What's with the July 10th, 2006 time stamp? I thought the site went down a day or two before the primary. There's not really much to the screen capture, either. Where did it come from?

    It had been hacked about three times in the past month. Each time the hacking shut down the email.

    It's good to see Moore criticizing the Democrats again. After Farenheit 911, I lost a lot of faith in him because I thought that film was not made to inform people, but simply get a Democrat in office. So this is good to see. People need to realize the majority of Democrats are not in-line with the anti-war movement. They want a troop reduction, not a time table for withdrawal.

    I didn't know that part. Still, it's hard to believe that a website would make that much of a difference in an election. And, that doesn't rule out the possiblility of net overload on the day before the election - which would make sense considering it was the day before an election where the whole country was watching. Could have been an organized effort too - kinda like he got "Freeped," only Lefty-style (which is pretty much the same as Freeping - but with a different ideology lodged in the brain).

    Do you have a site where the screen shot came from? I tried going to the root of the address, but all I got was an index (honest curiosity - not baiting).

    I woun't disagree with you on this at all. I was just bringing it up because of all of the times that I have defended the 2000 and 2004 elections.

    It wouldn't be the website at all that would make such a huge difference. Usually the biggest use for a website for the 72 hours prior to an election is helping people find out where to go vote for you. The biggest problem I would think for them is that the whole server went down which made them lose email capabilities which is where a good chunk of a campaign's GOTV and election day organization takes place.

    I will go back through my history to try to find where I found that link. I actually found that site a couple of hours before the news was available on the internet.

    Here is where it was initially. I can't find the post that has it now. It was updating throughout the day.

    Id love to know what relevence one web site crashing has to do with any of this.

    Straws, clutching, hands reaching, methinks.

    As I said before, it was more the loss of GOTV communication since the email went down with the server.

    What did the phone system jamming in New Hampsire in 2002 have to do with anything?
