33. Yep, Democrats have an unfair deal. Make your margins large enough where they can't steal it.

Or they will. That simple. They can win close elections because we don't tamper with voting machines, suppress the vote with voter ID, limited early voting or pathetic voting machine allotments. We can't because they will cheat ANYTIME it is close. Which is why Obama's accomplishments are such a big deal. He got so many new, younger voters as well as minority voters that the numbers were way too great for them to steal both times.

We need to keep that sort of enthusiasm going in 2016.
