They were directing it.

I bet they were the ones directing it all along. Obama was keeping his distance—but using every power he had to Win—at any price. He will never leave the White House of his own free will. If he could he would change the name of Washington to Obama City.

Once set in motion for ostensibly different reasons, all the creeps in the White House needed to do was leave it alone~!

But they knew.

Now that they are into the cycle where the schlumphs get punished and the brass get rewarded, they are breaking the law ~ in punishing the subordinates!

We may not even hear about it since IRS guys have to take their complaints through an in-house process long before they can ever file a complaint with Merit Systems Protection Board, and even then there are limits on what they can complain about and what MSPB can recommend ~ after all you wouldn't want MSPB dictating personnel policy to IRS when it involves their Confidential employee class.

Regarding voter turnout, Romney is shy of Bush' high of 64 million, as is McCain. The GOP-e may well want to blame that on Conservatives, or even Democrat cheating, but two doufouses in a row gets a doufous result on election day ~ seems to be clear to me we should be looking at the doufouses and avoiding that sort of candidate in the future.
