Thom Hartmann: Is Obama mobilizing 1000s of lawyers for Voter ID battle?

[thomhartmann]

Mike Papantonio, Attorney, Host, Ring of Fire Radio & Hilary Shelton, NAACP join Thom Hartmann. While Republicans are relying on billionaires to win the election this year - Democrats are enlisting the help of lawyers. In response to a rash of Voter Suppression ID laws and restrictions on early voting and voter registration, President Obama’s re-election team and the DNC are deploying teams of lawyers in states around the country to challenge right-wing anti-voting laws. The voter-protection teams, as they’re called, are monitoring any new law changes, putting pressure on local election officials, and training poll watchers to keep an eye on any “shenanigans” come Election Day. It’s a crime that such efforts are necessary in America - the beacon for democracy around the world. But with the Republican Party committed to kicking millions of Democratic voters off the polls by November, what other choice is there?
