The 2006 elections would have had even more democrats winning if not for caging and voter scrubbing efforts of the Republican party. This investigative reporting says criminal Republican voter scrubbing efforts have already disenfranchised more than a million would be voters for 2008.

I don't understand this one. At Greg Palast's Web site, it is claimed a major investigative report has been released today, authored by Robert Kennedy and Greg Palast, yet there is no report to be found. Such a report, if true and well substantiated, would not only be newsworthy, but worthy of a criminal investigation headed by the Attorney General of the USA.

This opinion piece has minimal journalistic value. It ignores the fact the ACORN alone is under investigation in 15 states, in many cases by Democratic prosecutors and attorney generals, and by the FBI. It ignores the convictions of a number of their operatives for registration fraud. The authors do not report on registrations of tens of thousands of felons in states where they are not allowed to vote.
