Silly or not the Marxo-Demo-Proggies **WILL** make a great big issue at a time when it **WILL** damage the Republican Party the most. Bet on it!

They capitalize on what the typical low information voter sees as hypocrisy. Many here on FR pushed the birther line on Obama when it was clear that the issue was bad tactics and was not going to go anywhere. Likewise in other forums the birther issue was pushed.
