And that is with Diebold's ongoing troubles as makers of election equipment, and their recent very public questioning whether they want to stay in that market, here we have the Bush administration firing people for not playing political games in elections (which is exactly what they are not supposed to do, according to what I heard Shapiro say).
Call me an old cynic, but are the tactics of Bush's people to attempt to manipulate the political process getting more visible, or are we getting better at spotting them? Or perhaps are they not working so well anymore and it's started getting harder to do them?
