Real audio link! No notice of such in post. That was not so nice.

In owillis' defense the link does have the word "video" in it. It should have been mentioned what type of media it was, but let's not lynch him like these republican mob members did to the guy in the video.

...and after all that it turned out to be a sample ballot.

That's okay, it was only a sample lynch mob.

If they're liberal, its a group of people excercising they're right to protest. If they're conservative, its a mob (even when lacking property damage and/or violence).

Yep. It even had the words "Sample Ballot" stamped on it.

When I clicked on the link, it opened up a web browser and then tried to put all the real audio buttons and stuff in the fullblown browser screen. Looked really funny, but only played audio. No video.

The protesting conservatives were groups of people exercising their right to protest. This was a mob.

What I want to know is, how much does such a mob [or group of people exercising their right to protest] influence a county to decide not to have a recount after all, as Miami-Dade decided yesterday?

By the way it looks to me, the loudest chanting and screaming came from the "freedom of press" chant at the end - those guys where holding cameras and such. So, there were acutally 2 mobs there.
