TPM:
Remember how Todd Graves was fired as US Attorney for the western district of Missouri, after he wouldn't go along with a Bradley Schlozman-backed effort to sue Democratic state officials for failing to purge ineligible voters from the rolls, alleging that this failure could open the door to rampant voter fraud? The Bushies then moved Schlozman himself into Graves' position as US Attorney so that he could push the case personally.
Well, the case has quietly dragged on, after being dismissed by one court, then reinstated by another. But yesterday, lawyers for the Obama Justice Department asked a judge to drop the suit.
There wasn't much doubt by this point about the suit's bogusness, especially given what we've learned about Schlozman's politically motivated approach to his work both at main DOJ and as US Attorney. But now it's more or less official.
Another Republican claim of voter fraud bites the dust.
As a reminder, here is an old time favorite video. Senator Whitehouse questioned Schlozman and Schlozman's possible political motives. Seriously, Schlozman's voice is a cross between Alvin the Chipmonk and Al Capone.

No Judge in his right mine would send the Chipmonk to jail there would be a full scale riot as every prisoner would want the chipmonk. There aren't enough guards to handle it. The voice it's the voice that will do him in. It's easy for him to play dumb because he is.
Hilarious, did Scholz suck helium before answering? LOL
