This election is making me question the value of democracy.
This election should make you question the intelligence of Obama more than anything else. There's no other reason why all this is occurring.
No, not really. He needs something to scare Hispanics to the polls after all, and RAWR ARIZONA IS RACIST works fine for that purpose. Significant numbers of people still think that this is going to be apartheid-Arizona edition after all.
You're missing the point. Obama's actions have made it such that Brewer will be elected regardless of how incompetent she is or looks like because the battle is not Brewer v. Goddard, it is Arizona v. DC.
And don't think this doesn't impact all other races in Arizona.
Besides, how is this getting Hispanics to the polls? I don't see any evidence of that.
