More brilliant stuff from guys named Ted

Ted Barlow nails it:

Well, it’s the issue that everyone is talking about. To
me, it seems pretty clear. Deadlines are deadlines, and rules are
rules. When candidates miss them, especially after disgracing
themselves by violating the laws they’re sworn to uphold, they
shouldn’t be on the ballot. There is no legal argument to support these
candidates, just vague appeals to “the will of the people.” That’s why
I join with principled, consistent conservative commentators to insist
that Katherine Harris be removed from the ballot in Florida.

A friend asked me after reading this if I’d flip-flopped from
conservative to liberal on him. I replied that my consistent thread has
been a stand against hypocrisy, and boy howdy, there do seem to be a
lot of it going around today, don’t it? I mean, Hillary might not have
been around New York long, but at least she followed the law. Unlike,
say, Milt Romney.
