There Goes the Felon Vote

Democrats including DNC Chairman Howard Dean and General Wesley Clark have in the past supported voting rights for felons.

It's unclear how large the pro-felon-vote contingent (or the number of voting felons) in the Democrat Party is, but there's a good chance it won't be pleased if Barack Obama picks Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius as his running mate.  Her son has created and marketed a board game that makes fun of prison rape, besides containing a few "insensitive" racial overtones, as well.

According to an earlier statement by the governor's spokesman, she and her husband "are very proud of their son John's creativity and talent."
