The First Lady has the right idea...

I think that the proper political response to all the Voter Suppression laws getting passed is to resurrect the Civil Rights Movement. If there is anything that will make Rove, Romney and the rest of the uber-wealthy soil themselves is the possibility that their own actions might give birth to a new and more powerful Civil-rights fight. The last thing the Right wants is another high profile protest era. Unlike OWS, a renewed civil-rights protest movement would get decent media coverage. Just the phrase " civil rights protest " might give even that idiot in Florida pause.


just a thought...
