Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
You have to give Hillary credit. She managed to hit several hot buttons at once. She played the race hustling card right up front, serving notice that no one is getting closer to the black vote this time than she. She perpetuated the black victimization fantasy that is a staple of liberals and blacks alike.
Then she went after the states that have had the temerity to make minimal steps to insure that only eligible voters actually vote. More steps obviously need to be taken to get at the illegal proxy voting that seems to be widespread in black areas. That happens where democrat activists vote for blacks they suspect will not go to the polls. My personal opinion is that such voting accounts for the surprising turnout of blacks in the last election. There were multiple precincts in the crucial battleground state of Ohio with enormous turnout that went 100% for Obama. Common snes tells you that wouldn't happen in reality.
Hillary also went after the Supreme Court, continuing the ugly trend of Obama in politicizing court decisions. Of course, his pressure tactics seemed to have worked with the weak-willed Chief Justice, who seems to have been intimidated on Obamacare.
The thing that you have to respect about these attacks is that the republicans are way too timid to argue the opposing viewpoint. No national republican has the stones to argue that democrat vote fraud is a huge and growing problem. They are too afraid they will offend hispanics, who vote 70% for democrats. They will never argue that the Voting Rights Act was a constitutional atrocity and is not needed in any event. How could they, when they voted in huge numbers to renew it just a few years ago?
So we probably will see yet another election where democrats and the media throw out outlandish charges, make vicious mean-spirited personal attacks and lie through their teeth, and the republican candidates talk about social security reform.
