Did a Republican Steal Your Lunch Money!

That question came to mind when I saw that the Republican state chairman in Washington State had stopped the electoral count at 87% of the votes cast last Saturday.

Here's Mike Huckabee's campaign being as outraged over GOP malfeasance as any liberal.
The Huckabee Presidential Campaign will be exploring all available legal options regarding the dubious final results for the state of Washington State Republican precinct caucuses, it was announced today. Campaign Chairman Ed Rollins issued the following statement: "The Huckabee campaign is deeply disturbed by the obvious irregularities in the Washington State Republican precinct caucuses. It is very unfortunate that the Washington State Party Chairman, Luke Esser, chose to call the race for John McCain after only 87 percent of the vote was counted. According to CNN, the difference between Senator McCain and Governor Huckabee is a mere 242 votes, out of more than 12,000 votes counted-with another 1500 or so votes, apparently, not counted. That is an outrage.
Can't these people do anything with violating the law, trampling on people's human rights, torturing people, promoting the worst kinds of bigotries, or being grotesquely unfair?

It seems the answer is no!

But it might all be a matter of socialization. I've heard the Republican Party demands evidence that a person has stolen lunch money from little kids before letting them work as "political operatives."

And then there's Ann Coulter and kittens.

Can't you write anything without resorting to school-yard taunts, Caric?
