Blacklisting of Jamestown Associates not limited to the NRSC (Rove, McConnell mafia tactics)

The damage done to the Republican ad firm Jamestown Associates as punishment for working for the controversial outside group Senate Conservatives Fund could be even more substantial than first thought.

Even the former RNC head, the incompetent and non-conservative Michael Steele, sees the sheer desperation and ultimate FAILure of these goon-like tactics by the gOpE ....

Still, Steele said the party’s effort to stifle activists will fail because many activists see themselves as conservatives, not Republicans, first.

“The establishment thought, ‘Oh, once they get to Washington, we’ll wrap our arms around them, we’ll put a shrimp in one hand and a committee assignment in the other and they’ll be ours,’ and they were like, ‘Keep your shrimp, I don’t want your committee assignment and I’m not voting for the same old crap you put out every year,’” said Steele of the ongoing fight.

“This process is one that has been unfolding for a while, so the idea that you are now going to wrestle control back from the people who vote, good luck with that,” said former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele,

What’s this called “tortion”? Interference in the conduct of business? Can’t these sob’s be sued?
