I have come around to the point of view, taken by the Democrats, that making a spectacle of Republican election stealing would actually help the Republicans achieve their goal of getting people to stay home in fearful paralysis rather than go out and vote. Now we have to get Thom Hartmann to see things that way. At least he points out the Dem view on this; it’s just he thinks the Democrats are in error. But I have changed my mind; people like Greg Palast are out there giving people the impression that as soon as they submit a ballot it will be taken in back and blasted with a shotgun; this despite that he’s actually providing useful advice about how to minimize the chance that your ballot will be spoiled.
If we can get five more people to vote for the effort it would take to save two ballots from spoilage, let’s go for it.
