“It comes across as a power grab,” said Republican analyst Allan Hoffenblum, who predicted the proposal would likely fail in the Democratic-leaning state. Even Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger offered a lukewarm assessment of the idea.

It is a way of not just giving the store to one candidate come election day and disenfranchising large numbers of folks, regardless their party affiliation or vote cast.

Fair? an attempt to be..
Power grab? Funny how the Rinos and Dems squeal the loudest..

Guilt by association. And it is okay for the Rat funded machine to drag the Swiftboat Veterans’ names through the mud but the charges that the Vets raised were never disproven.

Zogbyism at its worst.

Which charges weren’t substantiated?

I agree with you. This has nothing to do with any activity that is not legal, moral or ethical. The thing the article wtiter doesn’t like is that, as many veterans know, kerry is a self-agrandizing, useless SOB and was outed by the Swiftboat veterans.

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth that made unsubstantiated but damaging attacks on Kerry three years ago.

Ya gotta be kidding - the SBV attacks were substantiated by the observable facts, short term service, tiny injuries for purple heart awards, insisted on by the awardee, notorious traitorous activity on return. Opportunistic character exhibited throughout his life. You don't have to be a genius to see the nature of Kerry.

And Kerry's rise to prominence - from a sad sack state whose populace revers a scumbag who left a young lady to drown in an effort to avoid involvement with a drunk driving problem.

Their point is, "We don't like this idea." Therefore, we will slander the proposal by connecting it to the "Swift Boat people." We will call their charges "unsubstantiated" though it is actually Kerry's military career which is unsubstantiated.

Still, "if we use the right buzz words, the fools that think we are producing news will take us seriously and buy our crap."

Does that about get it? Did I miss anything?
