My take on this is that these 1000s of lawyers are on call. Sort of like a 800 # if you have a complaint! Instant lawyering - all I can say is the Supreme Court judges better be on duty too!
1-800-DNC-WHINE?
1-800-VOTE-RAT?
This sounds like the oppositie strategy of 2000 when they paid a group of callers to call Rat voters to ask if they are sure that they voted for Gore and not Buchanan.
