In reality, they probably didn't come in buses, but I think you get the point. All aame day registrations should be scrutinized with addresses checked for accurancy and actual residency.<br /><br />In the end, Wisconsin's loose registration laws may have made the acts of the left "legal", but they should still be exposed.<br /><br />In the end, 50% of the voting public has been fooled. With the vast majority choosing not to vote, it can hardly be called a mandate, but I agree that all of the due dilligence should take place. Giving any potential bad acts a free pass means that the tactics will be used again and again. <br /><br />One last question: When is the last time any Republican in a State Wide race ever won a close election?
