When the fix is in, it's in ...
One has to consider all the factors that go into voting ... the machines / ballot type, ballot layout, poll judges, poll workers, poll location, voting procedure (ie. whether ID is required, # of machines, length of lines, etc), and so on.
Simply changing the machines is no guarantee of anything - even back in the days of paper ballots (which some still use) fixes were common.
Even a well designed voting machine can be foiled, if it's not physically secured - have read some stories of voting machines sitting unsecured in warehouses / poor maintenance, lost data tapes, etc.
With all that said, McCain and Obama are more alike than different ... both are big corp bought and paid for ... so no matter which one wins, it'll be status quo - Obama talks a good game, but he flips and flops all over the place, such as with Iraq - at least McCain, like or hate him, is very clear that he's going to keep troops in Iraq just like Obama presumably will, but I digress.
