When in Doubt, Shout ‘Thief!’

The National Republican Congressional Committee’s latest appeal on the New York 20th Congressional District House race, after 12 hours of fairly noncommittal, positive statements of the election contest:

Don’t let the Democrats steal this election. Less than 80 ballots separate Republican Jim Tedisco and his Democrat opponent. We cannot afford to allow the Democrats to steal this election.

We need your support to ensure we can overcome the Democrats’ legal maneuvers.

Democrats have almost succeeded in stealing the election in Minnesota and seating Al Franken. We cannot allow them to manipulate electoral results to seat another tax-troubled liberal.

But the Al Franken pitch makes you wonder: Are Republican voters eventually going to get tired of shelling out money for recounts? They’ve given already given $1.3 million in Minnesota.
