(3,472 posts)Between gerry mandering, voter purges, and voting machines designed by and produced by Republican owned businesses, the fix is in. Those of us on this side of the aisle need to quit wringing our hands and wondering what hit us after the fact. We need to get pro-active and beat those bastards at their own game. For instance, RIGHT NOW democrats need to start pushing for paper ballots for the next few elections as well as UN oversight. There's absolutely NO reason to need to know the winner 2 minutes after the polls close. We need to start enlisting the wealthy on our side to set up funding & transportation so people that are getting hit with this ID bullshit can get the proper ID. There are ways to do this. Bottom line? We've got to stop trusting these bastards to do the right thing.
My late husband was a Republican, and was one of the only two people I knew who admitted to voting for Nixon. Twice. But when we were watching the 1992 Republican Convention, after watching Patrick Buchanan spewing hatred from the podium, he turned to me and asked me to please pick up a voter registration form for him the next day because "I don't want to be associated with these people anymore." He was out registering Democrats with me that year, and he just grew more and more disgusted with Republicans as the years passed. He saw it then. I don't know how people can't see the evil in them now.
