Will you please stop with this ridiculous question? We don't need to 'name names' to suspect something is afoot. Do we need to know the name of some backroom news chief at Fox that pulls the 'positive' Ron Paul story and runs a 'Unelectable' story instead? If we don't know his name, does that mean stuff like that doesn't happen?

Do we need to know the names of the people at some caucus who refuse to count votes on site and instead drive them somewhere? Does not knowing their names in advance mean it never happened?

Does it matter if things like this happen at a local level (a nefarious individual acting on their own) or if there is a puppet master?

No.

Vote fraud is as old as voting. Media manipulation is as old as media, and better perfected every year. To deny the possibility of either is ignorant. To insist we must know their names to level charges is the height of fallacious thinking.

But we do know the names of people "guilty" of what you're saying on a global level - the neoconservatives. They've risen to sufficiently high enough places in the media and politics to impress upon the voting public what they believe voters should think and feel. This is the applecart Paul is working to overturn.

At a local level, the degree of voting "fraud" that has occurred has been completely, unquestionably, negligible.

SE-COND SE-COND SE-COND SE-COND SE-COND (everyone dance in a circle around your computer and chant this to win).

This is proven to be much more effective than bickering.
 
Because Intrade almost always gets it right. Much better than the polls. For the same reason the free market works. It aggregates information from everyone involved to predict the outcome.
Ofcourse it gets it right as it changes as the results come in lol.
