It's not a free site so if you want to read the article it'll cost you but I thought the quote was interesting, to say the least:

http://www.frontiersman.com/articles/2004/10/13/news/news1.txt

... it as totally inappropriate for the Democratic Party to be caging," Ruedrich said ... says voters may apply to the director -- not to the Republican Party, not to ...

So it's inappropriate for the Democratic Party to be caging, but it's ok for the Repugs to be caging in Florida?

3. There are several threads on the list right now related to caging.

From what I gather from that posts, caging is either the collection of returned mail from mass-mailings (according to one of the FL republicans contacted by a DUer) or selectively targeting African American voters to contest their vote by claiming that their registration information is incorrect (wrong address, etc).

2. I think we should let the Free Republic pay to see that.

Give it a few minutes, and they'll have it copied in full on their website.
