The Lowest Common Denominator?

Voting is not perfect in this country or elsewhere but you’ve got to worry as to whether we should be thankful that some people don’t vote or that some people lose elections. What do you make of this statement from John Kerry’s speech to the League of Women Voters in Boston yesterday?

"Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday. People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote."

Would you want someone who believed this crap to vote? Does Kerry actually believe this?
