(82,849 posts)And I'm talking about people who are genuinely not sure whether to support Democrats or Republicans. They see Republicans trying to game the system with a transparently partisan maneuver to keep voters from the polls, and it doesn't tip the scales for them. A unanimous state supreme court decision stripping away the racist underpinnings of the Republicans' ploy, and it doesn't seem to influence their thinking at all.

Because they know high turnout favors Dems.

(19,361 posts)Their own state Supreme Court makes a ruling about the handling in their state of elections and they dont like the outcome so theyre going to go crying to the Feds?
Every stinking day the Republicans push the limits of unadulterated hypocrisy.

(79,293 posts)as my early polling place doesn't open until Sunday.
Either I will have to go Sunday or take time off work on Monday.
Saturday would have been so convenient for me.
Last time I looked (earlier this afternoon) the schedule has not been adjusted to show it's open on Saturday.

(12,847 posts)Maybe they think the Ribers SCOTUS will overturn the ruling, and they might not be mistaken about that.

(81,125 posts)What if they were suddenly hamstrung by lawsuits and challenges to every frickin move they make, whether its a legislative rewrite attempt or using the wrong fork at dinner.
Could we make it rain lawsuits?
Could we think and strategize other moves that will add more balls n chains to their ankles? Short-sheet their proverbial beds? How can we tie them up, up to their eyebrows, with burdens that scream for their attention, sap their energy, and cost them time, focus, and money?
Hell, thats how they treat us! WHY cant we respond in kind?
Why cant we return the favor, as it were?
Why DONT we return the favor?
Playing nice and being patient and evenhanded and rising above it do NOT work with these schmucks.

(13,081 posts)and Sinema who we know about but others that we dont know of.
I heard Thom Hartman talk about this once.
I like your lawsuits idea tho.

(81,125 posts)Tie em up. Monopolize ALL their time and expertise. The more time they spend responding, the less energy theyre apt to have to be active on-offense nogoodniks.
Whatever hobbles them or gums up the works for them is WHAT WE SHOULD DO! Gestures big and small, shall we say!
