"Dear Ms. Lopez:

Has anyone else noticed that the weather forecasts for Nov. 2 appear to show rain in almost all of the places where the race is tight? Ohio, Pennsylvania, NH, Wisconsin, Minnesota -- all have rain in the farecast, some of it possibly severe.

Considering how unenthused Kerry-ites are for their candidate and how revved up Bush supporters are for theirs, I wonder how much the weather is going to play a factor next week.

Of course, if Kerry loses, the Dems will probably just claim that Bush stole the election via his environmental polices - yet another thing to blame on global warming!

Keep up the good work! "

It's so obvious! This is why Bush opposed the Kyoto Treaty: he wants global warming to produce more bad weather, which keeps turnout low, which in turn makes it easier to steal the election!
