That DEMOCRATS have much more ACTUAL sense of right and wrong than GOPers,
even when it involves winning.

How many GOPers would even debate such an issue, if it were reversed for their party?

I have yet to see even ONE GOPer who questions GOP vote-suppression tactics of ANY kind,
in ANY state.

GOPers do not do stuff like that.
They always assume what the GOP does in elections is right and justified.

Anybody out there know of any exceptions,
please let me know and post about it here.
