Apparently the "Patriots" in the GOP have no problem with slyly subverting Democracy. How.. Republican of them.

11. Kick!

A bit off topic but I also wonder about voting by mail. I can imagine a fanatical boss reminding his workers to vote early, and then a few sycophants showing him their ballots. Same thing with voting over the internet. (Boss looking over ones shoulder)

Between Citizen's United, and the overall attitude in general, there's a fantasy land that some people live in where they think they are entitled to votes. (Not that our party doesn't take our votes for granted at times)

So, long story short, it's line in the sand time, all the time, when it comes to voting. I'm hoping for a huge stink arising from this.

12. Frankly, I cannot imagine such a mailing accomplishing anything.

I doubt it will inhibit anyone from voting. It's stupid, of course, and clearly a product of Republican dirty campaigning, but I can't see it as any more effective than the "Democratic Voters Go To Polls on Wednesday" nonsense.

13. Illegal this year.

Not if the GOP take both houses, or if the Supreme Court authorizes it.

14. Good luck with that, Allison. Fat chance of anyone messing with Herr von McConnell
