Dirty Tricks at Jay Fawcett Campaign?
The Colorado Springs Gazette reports:
Colorado Springs police are investigating who cut the Internet line running into Democratic congressional candidate Jay Fawcett's campaign office. Staffers could not get online Thursday, when they had planned on e-mailing delegates to tonight's congressional district assembly. An Adelphia repairman discovered that the outside Internet connection had been snapped by wire cutters, campaign manager Wanda James said. Police have not determined who did it, and James said that only party leaders and campaign staff have been in the Old Colorado City office. The line was fixed, and the e-mail was sent. "It's just a strange thing to happen the day before the assembly," James said.Fawcett is running for Congress from Colorado's 4th District. [Via Zappatero at Soap Blox Colorado.]

I have been (and of course continue to be ) a backer of Jay Fawcett's campaign despite living in Oregon. I agree with Anna that politics is a dirty place to be. Be that as it may I am always surprisd and disgusted and the "low-life" politicos or just plain vandalism lerking amongst us.If politicos, in 2000 and 2004, we really have seen the dirtiest of the dirt. Do your homework if unsure especially Robert F. Kennedy's,Jr.detailed investigation w/documentation.It can be found I believe in last weeks Rolling Stone as well as repeats finally picked up. Sad,if you feel you can not win fair and square, that is the type of Executive, congretional to judicial branch of our nation.This is a bad sign . Cheating!

Dirty tricks are played always no matter where is the competition.And politics is itself a dirty place to live in.There is nothing strange in today's world. Anything is possible!
