Betsy Devine, the blogger who owns the phone jamming story, writes today about Allen Raymond’s new book, ” How to Rig an Election: Confessions of a Republican Operative.” Betsy says,
Probably the biggest reason that GOP insiders want you not to read this book is not the rude first-person memories of Bush, Rove, Feather, Synhorst, et al. but the way [it] showcases in-crowd contempt for their freeper supporters — “the Jesus-loves-guns crowd” — “the knuckle-draggers, the gunnies, and the committed ideologue nuts.” “The mouth-breathers who who decide GOP primaries might allow people to steal their money and send their children to impossible wars but they’ll cut no such slack for baby-killers.”
A New York Times article about the book is here. Betsy’s review on Amazon.com is here. Betsy concludes her review with this bit of advocacy…
The Senate Judiciary Committee can’t seem to get off the dime to release the much-needed Deceptive Practices and Voter Intimidation Prevention Act so it can get voted on. Maybe this book will help more people see the light about why it is needed.
