there was a study out today from suffolk university finding that an estimated 90 million people willis fall. get that? that is more than a quarter of the entire population of the united states. 90 million people. put it another way, it's roughly the population of our three biggest states combined. california new york, and texas. so why are so mean people abdicateed their constitutional right to vote? well, 26% say they're simply too busy. 12% say vote doesn't matter. 9% say this are were just no good candidates in the race. but here's what's really scary. of those who aren't voting, of those who say they're not voting this time, 44% did vote last time. and they voted for president obama. 20% voted for mccain. and 32% last time didn't vote at all. in other words the vast bulk of these 90 million potential voters are coming right out of the democrat's column. and that is exactly the goal of these nasty ads and the conservative billionaires. suppressing the vote by depressing the voters. hoping that democrats are just going to stay home on election day. that just may be the most troubli
