Election fraud 2004: The Rehnquist Scenario 

Yes, I've always thought that Colin Powell's one-liner was a good one: "I sleep like a baby. Every two hours I wake up screaming." Get a load of this, from Kevin Drum:

"Even though the U.S. Supreme Court has said Chief Justice William Rehnquist will return to the bench following cancer surgery, administration officials are quietly considering candidates to replace him and even the possibility of making a recess appointment. The officials said that they do not want to talk about the process publicly in the last week of the presidential campaign. However, one insider said that the West Wing is considering what would happen if the judge left the bench soon and if a close election next Tuesday meant an evenly split 4-4 court was to decide the winner. Such a situation would likely mean that a lower court's ruling on an outcome would be final and officials are worried that it would go against the President."
(via Washington Monthly)

Well, I'm sure this would have no effect on the perception that a second Bush appointment was quite as legitimate as the first. And please, refer all complaints to The Department of "No! They Would Never Do That!"
