want to vote. they like them. everywhere we ve ever tried to limit or restrict your access to the polls, it has proven to be a loser of enormous proportions. republicans traditionally want to establish all those things similar to what was done with all of the business of that that was in the south for years where you had to preregister, you have to do a whole series of things to be eligible to vote. voters don t want to do that. they want to show up on election day with no preference whatsoever prior to their coming in and saying i m a voter and i want to vote. well, that seems to be a strong pattern. let me go back to mark halperin at the debate site tonight for the cnbc vote. i ve got to ask you a question since you re out there. this thing with herman cain, is that going to come up tonight? i think it s got to come up. it s going to largely be up to
your performance but keep people engaged in the pursuit of jobs. he ll be all right. you ll notice the white house hasn t said a word about what happened in ohio on health. and i think that kind of silence will be the hallmark of the campaign as they go forward. so they re going to pick the target of unemployment, but even though this unemployment usually hurts the incumbent, do you believe he can go against the wind like teddy kennedy used to say? can he win on the jobs issue as an incumbent during a high-unemployment period? that would be a first. as long as the republicans continue to do all the things they do to keep infrastructure from not being one of the places where we engage in where we provide resources and we provide money. tonight when the debate goes down, the question is going to be should there have been the help to the auto industry that the federal government provided? republicans are going to be wrong on all those issues, he is

there were no sideline participation, there was only full participation. and that s a way in which labor, i think, can help the president win reelection. let me ask you about this maine vote, mr. mayor, while i have you. it seems to me that the voters like to vote. i think we learned that in the state of maine yesterday, which was a very crusty independent-minded state. they voted down they voted to reject a law which would have ended same-day voter registration. seems to me voters don t like being told you can t vote, you can t register the same day you want to vote. they like them. everywhere we ve ever tried to limit or restrict your access to the polls, it has proven to be a loser of enormous proportions. republicans traditionally want to establish all those things similar to what was done with all of the business of that that was in the south for years where you had to preregister, you have to do a whole series of things to be eligible to vote.
