Why must some people sink so low?

From Talking Points Memo:
Some group is South Carolina is circulating a phony letter, purporting to be from the NAACP, alerting voters that they'll be arrested at the polls if they have unpaid parking tickets or are behind in child support.
Here's the report from the AP and more from the SC Democratic party.
This stunt aimed at minority voters crops up every cycle. Here's an example we chronicled from two years ago in Baltimore.
This is but one example. But across the country, the Republican ground game is simple: prevent as many newly registered voters from voting as possible. It's really as simple as that.
Yet another example here from Ed Kilgore.
