Justice Dept. asked to examine Mississippi ballot

Advice to Obama: no Foxworthy
Did you see the Charlie Gibson interview with Sarah Palin? The pundits were promptly on the tube saying things like “she did all right, but you can tell she had been prompted and pumped full of information.” Well, DUH.

SALTERBLOG – Hood’s brief, Brennan Center letter assume Miss. still votes on paper ballot. We don’t
Hood’s amicus brief, Brennan Center letter both assume Miss. still votes on paper ballots. We don’t. The argument is not only moot, it’s bogus. A Mississippi voter casting his or her ballot on a Diebold voting machine cannot skip voting in any race without the machine bringing it to their attention before they can proceed…

Barbour, Hosemann playing ballot games
The Hattiesburg American Editorial, 9/16/8 Hypocrites, thy names are Haley Barbour and Delbert Hosemann. Not that we should be surprised. In politics, it’s all about who is most deft, and fast, in manipulating the system to gain any advantage. It’s a numbers game, and with the GOP in danger of losing several more U.S. Senate…
