Hang Right Politics

It seems another Democrat senatorial campaign is in legal hot water this week.

Last week Wizbang Politics ran the story of a high level staffer in Maryland for Democrat senatorial candidate Ben Cardin campaign “secretly” used a blog, the Peresuasionatrix that denegrated Jews and Black staffers and Republican candidate Michael Steele. Not good.

Well, this week the campaign of Minnesota Democrat senatorial candidate Amy Klobuchar.

ST. PAUL (AP) - Democrat Amy Klobuchar’s U.S. Senate campaign has fired its chief spokeswoman, revealing Wednesday that she viewed an unreleased TV ad for Republican candidate Mark Kennedy that may have been illegally obtained.

In a prepared statement, Klobuchar campaign manager Ben Goldfarb said that communications director Tara McGuinness was contacted last Saturday by a local blogger who sent her a link to the ad. Goldfarb said the campaign had turned the matter over to the Minneapolis office of the FBI.

Wizbang Politics does another fantastic job of exposing this story. Go read all the details there. This could be very BIG news for Rep. Kennedy’s campaign to take that seat for the Republicans this year.

After this, the Cardin campaign, and the Schwarzenegger taped gaffe that was stolen from his computer archives and leaked to the press by his opponent’s campaign, is it any wonder why DemocRats are using that “Culture of Corruption” meme anymore?

Update: Wizbang also asks a great question about this scandal. Go check it out.
