This is just stupid:
Indiana's Democratic chairman said his party is ready to challenge the votes of any lifelong Republicans who attempt to vote as Democrats in the May 6 primary.
Indiana Democratic Party Chairman Dan Parker said he is concerned Republicans may try to cast crossover votes to skew results in the close presidential primary between U.S. Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
"I'm only talking about crossover with mischievous intent," Parker said of his party's plans to challenge suspicious voters. "If there is a coordinated effort by Republicans to affect the outcome of our primary, that would be something the party would try through the challenge process to keep those voters out."
Haven't I heard Barack Obama actually asking Indiana Republicans to cross over and vote for him? Are we going to have the Democratic thought police out there trying to figure out which Republican crossovers are sincere and which are being "mischievous"?
I've tended to vote in Republican primaries both because of philosophical inclination and because that's where action usually is in Allen County. But Republicans have already chosen John McCain, so why wouldn't I at least consider weighing in on the Obama-Clinton race? Want to know which one I might vote for? Want to know whether I'll be picking the one who'll be the best president or the one I think who will be easier for McCain to beat? Want me to swear it on the Bible? Get real.
