Rock the Vote Update
Posted by Bill Submandave went sniffing around some of RtV's source material on the draft scare: Bill at INDC has been on Rock the Vote's case about a dummy "draft card" on their front page that, until yesterday, bore the signature of Donald Rumsfeld. They replaced it with Charlie Rangel, but still give the "draft issue" front page treatment. I poked about a bit, noting that they link to Alliance For Security for Debunking the Myths, a site that still spoke of both the House and Senate bills, even though the House Bill was shot down recently. But, oh, wait, they did notice that and didn't like it because "As a result, the draft issue will not receive the extended discussion and debate it deserves." Go read his conclusions.

They only want the willing and intelligent volunteer heroes we have today and they wouldn't want to dumb-down a good thing whiny scaredy-cats.

Hugh McBryde Posted by: Prakk at October 19, 2004 04:57 PM The plan by the Dems this year is to raise as much fear and anger as they can, period, because they believe this is the best way to get their voters to turn up. I personally think it's backfiring but I may be wrong. Posted by: Dean Esmay at October 20, 2004 01:47 AM I think the Repubs are spreading plenty of their own fear around. And the argument could be made that it's backfiring on them. That is, if you pay attention to polls.
