NBC News: “McConnell warns corporate America to ‘stay out of politics’ — but says donations are OK”

I’m fairly certain corporate CEOs would not take on the entirety of the Republican Party on some minor political issue.

Overt voter suppression, however, isn’t minor; it’s an obscenity to American democracy, and every self-respecting U.S. citizen–at any level in the workplace or society at large–needs to affirm precisely that.

The GOP would do very well simply to back down here.  Create some ruse by which you can quietly rescind these laws and save face.  Blame it on some rogue law-making in the bowels of the state senate, then pretend none of this every happened.
