Howard Dean Upset He Couldn't Carry Out Voter Fraud

There is really no other way to describe this press release (From NRO's 6ers):


<<< Hilarious. Indiana has a new law that requires a photo ID to vote. Howard Dean had this to say minutes after the polls had closed:

To: National Desk

WASHINGTON, May 2 /U.S. Newswire/ — Voters across Indiana headed to the polls today for the first time since the state's voter I.D. law took effect. Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean issued the following statement:

"Indiana voters today became the first in the country to head to the polls and confront Republican efforts to use unfair voter identification laws to keep legitimate voters from casting their ballots. I applaud Hoosiers who headed to the polls today in the face of an unfair law that disproportionately prevents poor, minority, elderly, rural, disabled and student voters from being able to exercise their most fundamental right as Americans-the right to vote. >>> (emphasis added)


Apparantly, Howard Dean thinks that the trick of getting a photo ID is so beyond the skill of the average Democratic voter that any law requiring such must be a GOP effort to keep Democrats from voting...I don't know if this was an unintentional insult by Dean against his own voters, or just an acknowledgement of the sort of voters who would have Howard Dean as their Party leader.

The real problem, of course, is that photo IDs make it much, much harder for Demcorats to stuff ballot boxes, which is the usual route to Democratic victory, especially in close elections. I mean, think about it - without voter fraud, just where would Chicago and Philadelphia Democrats be right now?
