Block the Vote! 2008
This is appalling. I guess certain republicans will do anything to win. I say certain because I don’t want to over generalize. I consider myself an independent thinker and do not get involved with party bashing. Still this is ridiculous!
If you truly put country first, you would not look for a win by technicality. The people are the country and if the will of the people is for your opposition then you should be humble enough to accept that result. Yes you put up a fight with integrity and honor (usually doesn’t include ads extremely distorted truths, a.k.a. lies), but you don’t create new rules to get a technical win. These particular republicans are like kids when they losed thumb war. “No, You didn’t win! You have to count to ten…in latin…in reverse…while dancing to pen me. Besides, my mother (electorial college) can come in a vote me the winner.” Read below and do something.

Dear Friend,
It’s the most outrageous attack on voting rights we’ve ever seen–if you live in Michigan and you’re in danger of losing your home to foreclosure, Republicans wi ll try and take away your right to vote. It’s voter-suppression at its worst–taking advantage of hard times for political gain and kicking people while they’re down.
McCain’s response? Silence. Like Bush in 2000 and 2004, he’s trying to keep a safe distance from these tactics, while benefiting from them. McCain could end this with a phone call. But he won’t.
It’s time to expose McCain’s connection to this strategy. I’ve signed on with ColorOfChange.org to demand that McCain denounce these tactics. Will you join us? I t just takes a moment:

Similar tactics are being used across the country, but the McCain campaign simply sits in the background, quietly benefiting from voter suppression. The Obama ca mpaign is fighting against this plan in the courts, but they need our help to expose these dishonorable tactics and make this a national story.
If enough of us step up and connect the dots, we’ll give the press a reason to make the connection between McCain and what’s happening in Michigan. And as we’ve seen in our other campaigns, when we stand together behind a clear message, the press covers it and moves our message forward.
Calling on McCain to publicly reject these tactics is just the first step in ColorOfChange.org’s campaign to publicly shame the Republican Party for attacking th e voting rights of struggling homeowners.
