They're really coming out of the woodwork now!

Smoking Gun had this nugget.


"Angered by a delay in the receipt of his voter registration card, a Louisiana man today threatened election officials, claiming that he urgently needed to cast a ballot to "keep the n****r out of office,"

Sad to say, but there is going to be a LOT more of this as we get closer to Election Day. I was thinking of wearing a Vote Democratic button (or something to that effect) when my wife and I go to the polls, but with the levels of rancor from the right increasing almost daily, I'm starting to have second thoughts.

1. Terrorism....alive and well in the US of A and it has NOTHING to do with Barack Obama

2. I don't think you can wear the button to the polls.

8. Absolutely true in Texas. Partisan gear/handouts/etc must be no closer than 100

feet from the polling place. Our county org is planning to have volunteers stationed a little further out to advise voters of this before they even get in line.

3. Many states have laws against wearing partisan buttons, hats, tshirts etc...

... or any form of campaigning near a polling place.

4. Don't wear campaign stuff to the polls!

People will be turned away from campaigning near the polls.

My employer doesn't allow me to have political bumper stickers or yard signs, so I'm off the hook. But I would definitely worry about harassment, or vandalism by freepers if I did make any display of my political opinions.

5. Nothing like fear and hatred to energize the masses. nt

7. I miss my car and seeing the yard signs.

I do not get out any more and I could just see who would win by the yard signs. I once in a while have seen Obama signs and so far no McCain. But then I only get out once a month to shop. I did buy Obama buttons to hand out a few and that is pretty wild for me as the last button I have is a Nixon one. I used to vote in that party as my family were all in the GOP. It sure is not the party of my father. I can hear my father spinning in his grave over this hand out of tax money to banks now. So much for capital finding its own level.
