32. HRC has named names in her speech and the GOP candidates are responding

This is forcing the debate onto grounds that are good for Democrats. In particular, the GOP candidates have to try to defend their positions and their defenses are weak. The main defense is voter fraud but the facts do not back up that claim. The media is aware of the research on this issue and the GOP claims that voter fraud justify these laws will not work.

Yesterday, Rick Perry defended the Texas voter id law by claiming that you have to have a picture id to fly. That claim is false and people are calling Rick Perry out on this
