Terror at the elections

Wonkette is beginning to see how the terrorists might threaten the election:

Or if they somehow purged a bunch of law-abiding citizens off the voter rolls for no reason. Or maybe if they rigged up a black box electronic voting system. Or threw the whole thing to the Supreme Court. Those things would be a problem, democracy-wise.

And Jesus’ General writes Pastor Soaries (chairman of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission):

I understand that you have a tough sell. I’m sure there are many who have pointed out that elections have never been suspended before, not even during the Civil War when our very existence as a nation was in danger. These people fail to understand the nature of the threat today. Certainly, Osama bin Laden’s minions pose a greater danger to the Union than the armies of the Confederacy ever did.
