1. "Lamont Williams"--and I'll bet he sounded like Barry White too. Could it get any more obvious
what they're trying to do?

3. BINGO
you hit the nail on the head......

The ClintonS have shown they will ACT LIKE RETHUGS as long as they can retain power, and they are getting the same voters who sometimes vote for the RETHUGs

2. What's Wrong With Voter Supression?
You don't actually want Blacks to vote, do you? Most of them are Muslims.

If Blacks vote, the terrorists win.

(yes, :sarcasm:)

80. Obama backers among the Women's Voices leadership, but the group mostly has ties to Clinton and her
Will Evans of the Center for Investigative Reporting , who collaborated in reporting this story, found some Obama backers among the Women's Voices leadership, but the group mostly has ties to Clinton and her campaign. Gardner worked on former President Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign. Board member John Podesta was President Clinton's chief-of-staff. Maggie Williams, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, used to be on the Women's Voices leadership team and did consulting work for the group.

Chris Kromm, director of the Institute for Southern Studies, in Durham, N.C., says there's no hard evidence that the robocalls were meant to suppress the pro-Obama vote. "We can't show that there's any formal or direct connection," he says.

9. The whole reason it's suspicious to me and the explanations fall short
have to do with the fact they've done it before with the same controversies being noted. It can only mean they know what they are doing or they are stupid. There can't really be some sort of middle in that.
