Watch this video to see how the Menendez machine organized a smear campaign on Tom Kean during and after the NJ Senate debate.

Tell me they don't work illegally with peripheral groups!!!!!!

What a sham!

Busted by WCBS-TV News, of all things. I guess it was too blatant to miss.

The good news about this race is that whoever wins, a liberal will lose.

The bad news is, whoever loses, a liberal will win...

Is Gold Star Mothers the Sheehan group, or the real group? If it's the real group, were these people really with them (they are non-partisan, so I doubt it) or did this group just steal the name?

This is the Sheehan group. Anytime you see Military Families Speak Out or Iraq Vets Against the War, you are seeing the Sheehanites.

Wow, I am totally impressed with CBS3 for doing this report and busting the Menendez campaign. Does anyone doubt now that the exact same thing happened with the Tom Foley setup? Dems had planned to do the same thing with the Bush TANG memo story in 2004, with the DNC all set to launch "Operation Fortunate Son" the day after the 60 Minutes story ran.

I think the Democrats must be running a school for sleazy campaign tactics.

How is this different than Kean's political smear against Hastert, as though the only way he can win is by running over Hastert's back. A RINO gets his just deserts.

There are two separate groups. Gold Star Mothers are legitimate but Sheehan has a splinter group using a take-off name that makes it confusing.

Gold Star Mothers all lost a son or daughter in war in the military. Not sure what Sheehan's calling her group, something Gold Star Mothers for Peace I think.

I watched it again, and it was "Gold Star Families", not "Gold Star Mothers". The "Families" group is Sheehan's crowd.

Thanks. I knew it was a take off but could not remember the name.
