It was just the most recent and perhaps most sucesfull in grabing MSM attention and making the party at fault squirm.
The election fraud had as many or more diaries and people uncovering facts. Here and in other forums.
Those fraud investigations and the mommentum they generated resulted in the first vote against the electoral college in 100 years by Barbara Boxer and in 980 pages of evidence presented to Congress by Conyers... That's not small potatoes!
But they didn't nulify Bush's victory so the taste of success eluded us online sleuths hunting for the smoking gun on fraud...
There was also the "Iraq women on the balcony" were a kossack uncovered the fact that the women Bush showed with purple fingers in his last Union address was (yet) another shill for Bush and as "legitimate" as Challabi..
I believe if we think about it we can find a lot more collaborative stories born here or on our other top leftie blogs..
Anyone wants to post other examples ?
