"The truth of the matter is, democrats cheat! If you make it harder to cheat, it stands to reason, that liberal democrats will lose many more elections. To prove it, all you have to do is observe how hard democrats fight to keep it easy for people to commit voter fraud. There is nothing wrong with having to show ID when you go to vote. The real question is, why do democrats fight so hard to make it easy to commit voter fraud???"
It is probably true that Democrats cheat, as they did in Cook County, Illinois, 1960. However, the ones who get away with cheating are those who are in control. They make the rules and have most of the key posts manned by their own people. Currently, the Republicans have most state and local offices.
It is not easy for Democrats to cheat in too manny places. In fact, the Republicans are notorious for sending their goons to primary Democratic precincts to intimidate everyone they can into not voting. They also challenge people's right to vote, often without the slightest pretext, other than profiling. So where have the Democrats cheated lately on a massive scale, such as the Republicans did in Florida 2000, and Ohio, 2004?
One other point; it is true that strict laws on voter identification eliminate a few illegal votes, but that is not their purpose. Republican internal memos have repeatedly leaked, revealing an overt campaign to suppress the voter turnout. The truth is that despite the plutocrats and twisted-thinking average wage earners who vote for them, the Republicans still have the support only of a minority of Americans. If they can keep most of the voters at home they win. Democratic voters are not as diligent about their right/duty to vote, and can more easily be kept away from the polls. For every attempted Democratic voter fraud that Republican rules stop, they stop dozens of legitimate voters, and that is their real, often admitted purpose.

My man, you sure are ignorant! Democrats are by far the worst of the worst. That is a fact! The people who fight a honest way of doing things do it because gets in the way of their fraudulent plans. Wonder what the black panthers will be doing this election?
