2. There is a nasty portion of our population who trade in that hatred

6. Any mention of Tim Griffin's alleged involvement with voter caging military votes?

The same Tim Griffin that was named U.S. Attorney in 2006 despite the allegations, and is now running for US Congress on the republican ticket in Arkansas (2nd District)? I thought not.
