[Vision2020] Scandals

[g. crabtree]

Spoken like a trusting Democrat. I agree about the creepy & stupid part but, 
if the DNC or democrat operatives were aware of this situation months or 
even years earlier and waited till six weeks out from the mid terms to 
spring the nasty news for the advantage it would bring then I think that 
that has its own stink of nastiness (if not criminality) and deserves to be 
made public.
