Congressman Bernie Sanders just said (on the Thom Hartmann show) that he doesn't think any Senator will stand up with Conyers on the 6th. He said they don't think there is any evidence of actual fraud -- just irregularities, so that's why they won't contest on the 6th.

Just irregularities? How can you call charges of machine rigging and tampering and wide spread voter suppression "irregularities? Bernie speak for yourself and let the Democratic senators do the same.
Lawyers, statisticians, members of Congress and activists from across the country have looked at the evidence and deemed it justifiable to challenge the election, file lawsuits, and protest. Sander's is entitled to his opinion, but as a member of the House why is he speaking for all Democratic senators? And I take issue with him dismissing the evidence based on his opinion.
