The ground game and fraud.

If not for those two, Romney would be in the White House now. And despite the naysayers here, America WOULD be better off if that were the case.

“The ground game” IS voter fraud.

Karl Rove and his fellow consultants don’t make 15% advertising commissions on ground game efforts.

Grassroots efforts = No money for Rove.

Wasted advertising buys = Money for Rove.

The Dem ground game is fraud.

But it is also vast army of union (mostly government unions) workers who get PAID to get their vote, while GOP has to rely primarily on volunteers for its GOTV efforts.

In addition, (and here’s where the fraud comes in) the Dem vote in this country is HIGHLY CONCENTRATED in dense urban centers. These precincts often have few , if any Republicans, and little or no bipartisan oversight supervising voting at the polls. And most of these precincts are in cities dominated by Dem controlled political machines and their union allies making opportunities for election fraud and cheating virtually limitless. Look no further than Cook County among other places.

Too late. "We will crush them wherever we find them" McConnell saw to that.

Not entirely.

As the article points out, the Dems are the masters of Get Out The Vote Technology. For example, they have learned how to Vote Though Dead and have made great strides in implementing their Vote for Your Neiighbor Program.

Hmmmm. Maybe that’s what you were referring to.

The GOP needs to run fake candidates like the Dems do, under the guise of running “comedy” candidates. And they should run the most insane moonbat liberals they can find. Which shouldn’t be hard.

the Republican Party risks seeing its hopes for November glory washed away by busloads of Democrats "useful idiots" carted to the polls on promises of government freebies, marijuana and in some cases, direct payment.

I've said this before, we saw our last 'honest' national election back in 2008. Every institution, every government apparatus has been corrupted, transformed and perverted.

You cannot vote out tyrants and oligarchs, this article cites a few reasons why.

Americans however refuse to recognize reality, because Normalcy Bias has infected nearly everyone.

Article is spot-on.

Here in PA they’ve got ground troops walking about knocking on doors and making phone calls like I’ve never seen before.

The teachers unions have cranked it up to 11. They can smell Corbett’s blood in the water. They expect Wolf will not only “fully fund” their boondoggle by taxing the shale frackers, but will also shut down as many charter schools as possible.

They appear to be doing the same in Michigan, Wisconsin and wherever else they’ve got their knickers in a twist over the Pubbie Governor.

Of course they stay off my porch cause by now they all know that I’m their Friendly Neighborhood Right Wing Extremist.

Obama's constitutionally indefensible Stimulus Program funds at work no doubt.

How about filing suit when that “ground game” produces more Democrat votes than eligible voters? Voter fraud should be exposed and punished.

To my recollection, there has never been an election overturned based on voter fraud.

So, why shouldn’t they?

The goal is to get as many of them elected as possible,
and fraud accomplishes that. They can worry about the minor consequences and still accomplish their goal.

Why doesn’t the GOP have a ground game like theirs?

Because we don't have union slugs willing to take orders like mind-numbed robots.
