Not that the GOP will care, but if the right-leaning Wisconsin State Journal says the tactic is "unseemly," I think you can say it's a consensus.
Republicans calling their counterfeits "protest" candidates only made the party look intentionally dishonest.
If Democrats don't demand that the GAB provide an online searchable list of every single person who signs these nomination papers for these fake candidates, or failing that organize like the Right did and provide a grassroots list for all to use from the comfort of their living rooms, so that Republican signers may be hunted and persecuted at taxpayer expense just as they hunt and persecute - I'll never vote for another Democrat ever again. I want to know what businesses support this illegal immoral fake candidate activity. There are no provisions for running fake or protest candidates in our WI constitution,If I am open to witch hunts for exercising my constitutional rights, then I should be able to enjoy vicious payback time at people who step well beyond their constitutional rights, into areas of deception and cynical manipulation of the system.
ReplyDeleteI want to know what judges, cops, teachers, surgeons, newspaper editors, sports team owners, and garbage men sign this, so that they may live in fear.
This is a teachable moment. If Democrats allow it to pass without acting there's no hope for any of them. They need to support and defend the people who support and defend them, or go ahead and merge with the Republican party officially. So many of the Dem candidates are now pro-war, pro-bank, pro-wallst, and anti-choice, why the hell not.
The List.
We want one ASAP
