I guess what I don't understand in all of this is Russian's irrational fear? It's an effort to put a vote before a group of people using legal means and following all the laws of the land.

Do we think Bodi White is pure as the driven snow? Of course not. But is Kip? Is Bones Addison? Cleo or Wilson Fields? Mike Walker? Smokey Bourgeois?

Corrupt, power hungry people exist everywhere. You will no more eradicate these threats to civilized society and good government than you will racism or bad credit.

The truth is deviant behavior in the political arena is just like deviant behavior anywhere else: you protect against it but ultimately it helps define things like civil behavior and good government.

It's like saying we should elect Jindal Governor for life because perhaps a corrupt man may register and run to replace him after his 2nd term. Or worse, that someone may just donate or help an otherwise decent man that isn't such a decent man get elected to the position.

Doesn't pass muster when it comes to an otherwise highly respected, very bright poster in my opinion...
