nutroots whine: b-b-but, dittoheads are breaking election laws!!!!!

The Nutroots aren't too happy that Dittoheads and others are switching parties to vote tactically in the Democrat primary.  Here we have one (and I'm guessing it was more like dozens feverishly ranting) whining to a Wired blogger that the crossover voters making a strategeric vote were breaking Ohio law, on the basis that one has to believe in the priciples of the party you register with.  Basically, this is unenforceable, and even if it was,

By the way, cross over voting for purposes of affecting an election isn't limited to Republicans. A spokesman for the Ohio secretary of state's office said it always happens in presidential elections and also occurred during the 2006 gubernatorial primary election when Democratic voters crossed over to cast ballots in the Republican primary for Kenneth Blackwell because they thought he would more likely lose in a race against the Democratic candidate for governor.


Sorry Nutroots, you may want try again, this one isn't gonna go anywhere for you.
