This is one heck of a Freudian slip, honestly.
“For one thing, they would probably seize on the chance to attack her for favoring another government mandate and federal encroachment on states, and also to argue that government mandated registration could produce other types of fraud.” – Bolding mine, and I’m kind of pleased that we’re just admitting for once something that everybody already knows: which is, that there’s inherently just something in mandatory voting registration that doesn’t hate a fraud. I feel that it’s good for Left-pundits to reach this plateau, as George Carlin might have said. It gives all an opportunity to advance the debate.

PS: No, by the way. I think that we can avoid mandated voter registration on the federal level for some time to come. States with full Democratic control are perfectly free to set their own policies in this, of course… although finding states that fit that description has been getting harder and harder to do, of late.
