Well, lets forget Palin. We are speaking of a lawyer who happens to have all the advice that a White House staff can bring to you and still, whether it was or was not a violation, does something that makes you pause.
Imagine if Laura Bush had done this...that is a better comparison.
I believe despite your flowery quotations that it is not allowed to try to infulence voting at a polling place in all states. The specifics vary from state to state, but to me that is not the point....
Richie makes the point about the attitude of this WH, and it is a valid point. I know from past experience with you that you will defend this administration to the hilt (unless they practice catholicism) but his point is well taken. Even quotes from this WH indicate how they feel above the law in so many instances. He preaches and we are to listen and behave !
