Well, like pieces of a puzzles, some things may be falling in place in regards to the scandal related to missing RNC emails. Now, in addition to Rove’s involvement in the scandal involving the U.S. attorney firings, these missing emails may also contain another bit of damaging information — a batch of emails from election night 2004 are missing and there is some speculation that they may contain clues as to what happened in Ohio that night. Ohio was plagued with some very suspect occurences that day (fewer voting machines in Democratic districts, suspect voter rolls and even an unexplained shutting out of the press during a vote count based on a supposed terrorist threat — in a rural community and without the FBI knowing anything about it).

So, some are clearing interested in why the emails from this night are missing. Here’s why the suspicion:

But the time frame from which these e-mails are missing also includes a critical late night period after the presidential election of 2004. In these crucial hours, computerized vote tallies may have been shifted to move the Ohio vote count from John Kerry to George W. Bush, giving Bush the presidency.

Earlier that day, Rove and Bush flew into Columbus. Local election officials say they met with Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell in Columbus. Also apparently in attendance was Matt Damschroder, executive director of the Franklin County (Columbus) Board of Elections.

These four men, along with Ohio GOP chair Bob Bennett, were at the core of a multi-pronged strategy that gave Bush Ohio’s twenty Electoral College votes, and thus the presidency. Bennett and Damschroder held key positions on election boards in the state’s two most populous counties, with the biggest inner city concentrations of Democratic voters.

So, you have to wonder if all this is related. I believe so and, as more rocks are picked up, more scandals are going to be exposed. I think we are just beginning one of the wildest political rides in U.S. history.
