Bill Maher visited the set of Hardball this Monday to discuss why he gave his donation to the Obama Super PAC last week. Despite the weak field on the Republican side and Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney's series of gaffes, with the money pouring into the PACS on the other side, Maher doesn't feel anyone who supports President Obama should be taking the upcoming election for granted.

Maher said he was "trying to throw a snowball to create an avalanche here to let the liberals who do think that this is already in the bag" since not all of the country sees it that way and thinks the upcoming is going to be close.

He missed a couple of other points besides the money to be concerned about in regards to the integrity of the next election, which are the massive voter disenfranchisement which is going on across the country in every state where Republicans control the state governments with the passage of these voter ID laws and those electronic voting machines and tabulators.
