Blast from the past RE: Diebold

According to SEC docs....CEO of Diebold gets nearly 60 million in stock options after 2004 election that puts GW Bush back in the White House for 4 more years.

and an informed public and hard work, 24/7, by all of us would
really make this thing work. We could relieve each other so no
one person would be working the entire time. It's easy. Why isn't
it happening? Why plutocracy? Mediaocracy? Oligarchy? Corporatocracy,
A republic masquerading as a democracy, quite uneasily referred to
as a republic.

Were this issue irrelevant, something else would be relevant, equally
off-putting, like the Fiscal Cliff.
Do you agree that 2012 is the last year that a Republican could possibly
be elected president?
