358: Bogative Charity

Thom Hartmann, Voting Machine Hacks, Ron Paul Red Herring

Thom Hartmann reported on Russia Today that an eighth-grader could hack Diebold electronic voting machines for $26. Hartmann suggested that "hacktivist" groups like Anonymous could exploit these vulnerabilities to skew Republican primary results in favor of Ron Paul. The hosts interpret this as a "Red Book" narrative designed to delegitimize a potential Ron Paul victory by blaming it on hackers.
