What Went Right In Ohio?
Anonymous, the hacktivist organization that has successfully perpetrated cyber attacks on the Church of Scientology, the Israeli government, the Pentagon and several other high profile targets may have saved the 2012 presidential election.
Several weeks before the election Anonymous warned Karl Rove that they were watching him and would both thwart and report any attempt by him to flip the election as they claim Rove did in 2004.

Well, sir! It seems they just might have done it! Anonymous claims that Rove did indeed try to pull the same tricks that had worked for him before but that they stopped it. This would certainly explain Rove's meltdown on Fox when the election was called for the President.
Here's what may have happened.

Pretty interesting stuff.
It is clear that a paper record is still required.

Tee Hee! Rove's children tried 105 times to break the password into the Great Oz! Even if untrue, I'm hugely amused at your take on his meltdown!
That would 'splain a lot of his reaction.

If true, this is really scary.
It sure would have been fun watching Rove's army try to defeat the Great Oz. And then to know what was behind his freakout on Faux news.

The thing about Anonymous is, when they say they're going to do something, they do it and, when they say they've done something, they have. If this is real, I hope they follow through and turn the information over to the Justice Dept.

I just wonder if anyone in the Justice Department would have the stones to pursue it. What would the ramifications be if it was discovered that Kerry had actually won the election in 2004?

They would go after Anonymous, Rove would skate free.
When a whistle blower exposed the USB banking scandal all the millionaires and billionaires were given amnesty to pay their back taxes. That is probably why we did not see Romney's 2009 tax return. Who went to prison? Naturally, the whistle blower did.

I'd love to see Turd Blossom as someone's bitch in the Big House, but I have a hard time believing he's capable of using any technology more complex than an abacus.
