Excellent article
Beautifully written.
I believe the voter fraud part of this story. There is just no way Obama could have won EVERY single toss up state, except what, North Carolina? It just doesn’t seem plausible...
The machine doesnt care about individuals. It only counts bloc votes. It doesnt care about making life better for people. Its genius is for finding ways to make life worse because it knows that it has more leverage over people looking for the next meal than over people looking to buy a house in the suburbs. The political machine doesnt budget; it loots. It breaks the bank, raises taxes, drives out industries and rules over war zones divided between the rich and the poor.
Divide and conquer. Divide and conquer. Divide and conquerand count on the narcotics gangs to do most of the job the police used to do. The gangs keep things orderly enough, plus instead of costing cities tax dollars, they deliver substantial sums of money to the Democratic [sic] party, plus they keep the workers and peasants in a state of constant fear.
Who said oligarchs don't care about efficiency?
Daniel Greenfield has written a masterpiece.

Marxist bump
The author should cite an instance or I will believe he's talking about the tired old canard of the election of 1960, when if all of Illinois electoral votes had gone to Nixon, he still would have lost to Kennedy.

I guess so. But the liberal ideological “machine” is more visible, at least in the media. Older political machines provide the foot soldiers and civilian hangers-on for political armies whose generals comf from a different environment.
It also explains the Democrats' drive to eliminate the Electoral College, which would strip the rest of us of the last little bit of protection we have from these people and their brutish cynicism.
CWII looms!
Reagan beat back the machine, so it can be done. The FFs left us the tools to dismantle it, if we want to use them. What we don’t have is much more time before it gets really difficult.
