More Sleaze

Posted on November 7, 2006 by Michael Froomkin

Item: right-wing radio host Laura Ingraham today urged her listeners to obstruct efforts to protect voting rights by jamming a free voter protection hotline.

Item: Michael Steele and Bob Ehrlich hit an all time low in American politics. They distributed misleading sample ballots that pretend Ehrlich-Steele are Democrats and that Jack Johnson and Kweisi Mfume endorsed both of them. It’s very clear that the party establishment is behind this — the Governor’s wife was part of the welcoming committee for the folks involved in this.
