So say the McCainiacs: voting is cheating

McCain Supporters Heckle Early Voters, Call Them 'Cheaters'

Photographer Joe Eddins and I headed over to the closest one and found a steady line of voters hoping to cast ballots early. Most seemed to be Obama supporters and several had come from the rally. Nearly all the voters were black.

Also at the polling site was a group of loud and angry protesters who shouted and mocked the voters as they walked in. Nearly all were white.

As you can see from these videos, no one held anything back. People were shouting about Obama's acknowledged cocaine use as a young man, abortion and one man used the word "terrorist." They also were complaining that Sundays are for church, not voting.

Well done McCain supporters. I know 'retro' is the hip thing nowadays, but it's just supposed to be about music, clothing, and design...not racial attitudes. You know, a group of predominantly white people heaping abuse on a group of predominantly black people for wanting to exercise fundamental constitutional rights is so....1964. At least put on a fedora, dress like Don Draper and pretend it's Halloween related sixties political theatrics. Don't be so overt is all I'm saying.

Although I am intrigued by this concept of early voting constituting cheating. Are they concerned that by casting your vote early you are thereby denying McCain a full month's worth of chances to grind down your will or mindfuck you into voting for him? Are you cheating by casting a vote for a Democrat in North Carolina? Ignoring God's will by voting against his chosen candidate on the Sabbath, engaging in the rare double-blasphemy? In any event, here's a list of the state by state rules in case you want to do some early voting cheating. My state only allows me to cheat on November 4th.
