No one has ignored election fraud since 2004. There have been two hard fought elections won by Democrats since then, 2006 and 2008. The 2010 election was mostly driven by the tough policy choices that served to depress turnout.

Still, what does a meme that Rove is focusing on the Senate and Romney is a distraction have to do with election theft?

I mean, if he's going to steal the election, why not steal the Presidency?

Wouldn't that provide more cover down-ticket?
