A tactic I despise...

This article at Salon.com is by a woman who volunteered at both the Obama and McCain campaigns... she volunteers and then writes about her experience. What the McCain campaign had her do after filling in for a day on the phone banks (a good and clean tactic) was to make up a fictional person, play a role and write letters to editors of newspapers as that person supporting John McCain... what a crock. I mean, if a campaign is going to be writing fake letters from fictional characters supporting their candidate how will they act once in office? By writing a forgery about nuclear weapons as a justification for war? Oh wait, we've heard that story before... Niger anyone? This is beyond the pale and I hope and prey that the main stream press pick up on this and gets this woman interviewed... Olbermann, are you listening?
