Debbie Wasserman Schultz must be in shock. Alana Goodman writes in Commentary:

A new Rasmussen poll out today found that 75 percent of respondents support a law requiring voters to show ID at the polls. Or, as DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz recently put it, a law that would "drag us all the way back to the Jim Crow" era.

In fairness:

Wasserman Schultz walked back her hyperbole slightly earlier this week, conceding that "Jim Crow was the wrong analogy to use." But she still claims that requirements to show ID at the polls - which are designed to cut down on election fraud - are racially discriminatory.

Wasserman Schultz's idiocy opens the door for the GOP to make this a national issue. She has given demagoguery a bad name, and this is an issue that is both popular and vital to prevent election chicanery.
