Poised to Lose on Voter ID Rules

It doesn't look good for the Dems hoping to keep voter fraud channels open.

WASHINGTON -- There are many ways to lose a Supreme Court case, and by the end of an argument that was before the court on Wednesday, the Democrats who were challenging Indiana’s voter-identification law appeared poised to lose theirs in a potentially sweeping way, with implications for many future election cases.

The justices’ questioning indicated that a majority did not accept the challengers’ basic argument — that voter-impersonation fraud is not a problem, so requiring voters to produce government-issued photo identification at the polls is an unconstitutional burden on the right to vote.

Conservatives dissatisfied with George W. Bush's time in office should at least be grateful for his Supreme Court nominations, John Roberts and Samuel Alito.

This case should serve as another reminder of why it's so important to keep a lib out of the White House.
