Nasty Romney campaign seeks to suppress the dead vote

It's a very old game with established rules.

Here's the way it works: Democrats register dead people or people otherwise not eligible for one reason or another to vote. This most often happens in minority areas or other areas in which the Democrats are so firmly in control that they stand a good chance of getting away with it. The deceased or felonious or otherwise ineligible Americans "vote" Democratic.

The Republicans object. And the Democrats respond by accusing the Republicans of trying to suppress the vote among minorities and other Democratic-leaning groups. "Count all the votes!," the Democrats shout- not bothering to mention that they are including the heartbeat-challenged and the like among the groups whose voting rights need to be respected. Ain't inclusiveness just grand?


In 2000, it happened in Florida. In 2004, it happened all over the country (unlike Florida in 2000, Democrats actually went to jail in Wisconsin for their 2004 electoral shennanigans). In Chicago, it's been going on since time immemorial.

And naturally, any electoral success or gains in the polls enjoyed by the GOP must of necessity be due to racism. After all, any decision to oppose an African-American president has to be racially motivated, doesn't it?

Now the game is being played in Virginia. And of course, the Romney campaign is under fire for trying to suppress the dead vote. And for opposing an African-American president.

Those racist, plutocratic monsters! How dare they discriminate against the deceased, or suggest that an African-American president can mess up just as thoroughly as any Caucasian one?!

Absolutely shocking!!!
