There's a very common attitude here that the left is all-powerful and never makes any mistakes, so anything that happens is obviously part of their plan. (An interesting contrast to the Qtards, in fact.) But nothing is ever like that. What actually happened is what you said. Their fraud is so obvious only because it's so ridiculous, and that's because it was a landslide.

If it really was all part of their plan, there wouldn't be a total media blackout on all of the actual evidence.
