Mayor Daley of Chicago helped to get Jack Kennedy elected president via voter fraud. That's a fact in the history books. It's got to be on a grand scale and obvious to all for a stain like that to be acknowledged. I mean who wants it on their city's public record of achievements? |
A Republican President has been in office for the last 8yrs, during which time elections were 'won' by any number of dubious and outright nefarious tactics. During this entire period the Democrats have bemoaned their inability or unwillingness to adopt or adapt to such tactics - Kerry's defeat in '04 has in a large part been laid at the feet of his failure to respond soon enough to the 'Swfit Boat' attacks; what does that tell you when a concerted campaign of lies and distortions is the defining measure in an election?
To suggest that Republicans are somehow only now catching onto Democrat tactics is taking quite some liberty and a rewriting and revisionism of recent history. And that, in a nutshell, was my original point; the seemingly innate ability of Republicans to conveniently 'forget' or ignore. One example of this is the current gnashing of teeth or voter fraud in the upcoming election. To this point it's not bothered them much has it.
