This is scary.

It's scary how low and desperate the Republicans are and what levels they will stoop to. Just a few examples from yesterday alone:

1) This is a letter sent by the State Department to troops who are from disgraced Mark Foley's district:

On September 29th, Mark Foley resigned from the United State House of Representatives. He also withdrew as the Republican Candidate for the House of Representatives in Florida’s 16th District.

Pursuant to Florida Law, the Florida Republican Party nominated Joe Negron as the Republican Candidate in the 16th District replacing Foley. Pursuant to Section 100.111(4) of Florida Statute, Foley’s name will remain on the ballot for both absentee and regular ballots. Any votes cast for Foley will count towards the total of the substitute candidate.



Voters from Florida’s 16th Congressional District should be aware that any votes cast for Mark Foley will be counted toward the total of Joe Negron. Additionally, voters who wish to cast a vote for Joe Negron should cast their vote for Mark Foley.

Not mentioned in the letter are Democrat candidate Tim Mahoney and Independent candidate Emmie Ross. That's number 1

Number 2 is Tad Nguyen, the REPUBLICAN who sent a letter to Latino Democrat voters saying if they are immigrants, legal or not, if they vote they will be put in a database and possibly deported. He should be charged with hate crimes but since he IS a Republican nothing will happen. And it turns out he bought the voter list that listed the people he sent the leters to.

Number 3 is in VA. where in the electronic voting machine where DEMOCRAT Jim Webb finds his last name cut off ballots. The excuse given is his name, Jim Webb, is too long. Mind you REPUBLICAN George Allen's name is longer and conveniently his name is fine.

Nothing like trying to supress your vote isn't it?
