Ex-Indiana governor: That's not my signature on Obama petition
Chicago Tribune via Drudge ^ | 10/12/2011 | AP/Chicago Tribune

Posted on 10/12/2011 11:58:43 AM PDT by RushIsMyTeddyBear

Former Gov. Joe Kernan says a signature on a petition to place Barack Obama's name on Indiana's 2008 primary ballot isn't his, putting him among dozens of dubious signatures found in a newspaper's investigation.

Kernan, a Democrat who campaigned for Hillary Clinton during the 2008 primary, told the South Bend Tribune that he didn't sign the Obama document.

"No, not at all," the former South Bend mayor said when asked whether the signature next to his name on the Obama petition looked like his own. "Nor does the printing look like mine."

The Tribune reported Wednesday that it has talked with more than 40 people who say they didn't sign ballot petitions submitted in St. Joseph County for Obama or Clinton, despite their names appearing on the documents.

State Republican Party Chairman Eric Holcomb has called for a federal investigation into the matter.

Voter Fraud is TREASON and should be punished as such.

Did anyone actually believe that “O” got onto the ballot legitimately?

There’s another thread on this, so this one may get pulled.

Just remember: as with his aunt’s illegal status, Jeremiah Wright, Van Jones, and Operation Gunwalker, Obama never knew about this.

But even if he did, it’s a racist Tea Party conspiracy.

Drip, drip, drip...then, flush.

Interesting that this is coming out now. I bet the DNC is going to become ever more desperate the closer we get to 2012.

It's not too late for them to dump obama, provided they have the right reason.

Either they do it or voters will do it for them and they'll all swirl around the drain.

Holder? If the next Republican President is anything like Bush he will completely ignore it and let it get buried like Bush did with a ton of stuff about Clinton. I hope we are delivered from a namby pamby Pres this time who thinks his primary duty is to "not rock the boat". Oh wouldn't that be lovely!

" If the next Republican President is anything like Bush he will completely ignore it and let it get buried"

Part of the political problem with the Establishment Republicans is their "back-room agreements" with Democrats to NOT PURSUE PREVIOUS CORRUPTION/PAYOFFS TO DONORS of the previous regime.

That's EXACTLY what we will get with the Establishment Candidate (ROMNEY).
