Nationally, Democrats say they intend to campaign against the tea party movement. But locally, Democratic officials and activists in at least four states now stand accused of collaborating with tea party candidates in an attempt to sabotage Republican challengers in some of the closest House races in the nation.
The charges of dirty tricks are being leveled in Pennsylvania, Michigan, New Jersey and Florida — and they involve more than a half-dozen contests that could tip the balance of power in the House.
The accusations range from helping tea party activists circulate candidate petition sheets to underwriting the creation of official tea parties, which then put forth slates of candidates that local conservatives accuse of being rife with Democratic plants.
In all of the affected races, the outcome is expected to be close enough that a third-party candidate who wins just a few percentage points could end up swinging the outcome to the Democratic congressman or candidate.
“The Democrats have come to the realization that they can’t win on issues, and with their flawed candidates, so they are forced to skirt the rules by running candidates who they hope can split the vote with Republicans,” said Paul Lindsey, a National Republican Congressional Committee spokesman.
Democratic officials deny there is any grand conspiracy.
"The DCCC has nothing to do with this," said Ryan Rudominer, a spokesman for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
But the evidence of campaign tampering in at least two states is hard to dismiss. In Michigan, ...

I have no doubt the commies are up to no good.....sounds just about right for them as a matter of fact.
Sorry about the double-post. I searched for this article and didn’t see it. I just searched it again and saw that someone else posted it yesterday. Sorry!
Oh please...the Crook Party will do anything to hold on to their majority, and that always includes lying, stealing and buying votes in the minority precincts. If the GOP hasn’t caught on to their dirty tricks until now, it’s no wonder Philly can regularly turn in more Democrat votes than eligible voters.
Those people need to learn the Cowboy Way. If they do that, they will live longer. Read on:
An oldie, but goodie.
The Cowboy Way
I have lived, loved, lost and loved again. Life is not easy, but it is what it is.
Cowboy rules for:
Arizona, Texas, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Idaho and the rest of the Wild West are as follows:
1. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.
2. Turn your cap right, your head ain’t crooked.
3. Let’s get this straight: it’s called a “gravel road.” I drive a pickup truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you’re gonna get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.
4. They are cattle. That’s why they smell like cattle. They smell like money to us. Get over it. Don’t like it? I-80 & I-40 go east and west, I-395 & I-5 goes north and south. Pick one and go.
5. So you have a $60,000 car. We’re impressed. We have $250,000 Combines that are driven only 3 weeks a year.
6. Every person in the West waves. It’s called being friendly. Try to understand the concept.
7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of geese/pheasants/ducks/doves are comin’ in during a hunt, we WILL shoot it outta your hand. You better hope you don’t have it up to your ear at the time.
8. Yeah. We eat trout, salmon, deer and elk. You really want sushi and caviar? It’s available at the corner bait shop.
9. The ‘Opener’ refers to the first day of deer season. It’s a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.
10. We open doors for women. That’s applied to all women, regardless of age.
11. No, there’s no ‘vegetarian special’ on the menu. Order steak, or you can order the Chef’s Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham and turkey.
12. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use three spices: salt, pepper, and ketchup! Oh, yeah ... We don’t care what you folks in Cincinnati call that stuff you eat ... IT AIN’T REAL CHILI!! Real Chili has NO beans !
13. You bring ‘Coke’ into my house, it better be brown, wet and served over ice. You bring ‘Mary Jane’ into my house, she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.
14. College and High School Football is more important here than,, the Giants, the Yankees, the Mets, the Lakers and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch.
15. Yeah, we have golf courses. But don’t hit the water hazards - it spooks the fish, and the Ducks
16. Turn down that blasted car stereo! That thumpity-thump ain’t music, anyway. We don’t want to hear it anymore than we want to see your boxers! Refer back to #1! or join the service, we love our troops, you
should be so lucky.
17. There’s only one God and we love him and worship him.
A true Westerner will send this to at least 10 others and a few new friends that probably won’t get it, we share in hopes you can begin to understand what a real life is all about!!! and “God Bless America “
P.S. all my friends will get it.
FREEDOM ISN’T FREE SO DON’T TAKE IT FOR GRANITE...........NEITHER IS LIFE, SO LOVE IT WHILE YOU CAN, ONE DAY AT A TIME...............
We saw the Republicans put McCain up to run, KNOWING they had no chance after 8 years of propoganda and Bush-bashing by the state-run-media.
ONLY those who are a threat are attacked viciously and continuously, as they are not in the pocket of the good ol' boy network.....that's why Romney is promoted by the SRM, too.
Conservative candidates are either attacked relentlessly, or not mentioned at all to make sure they don't gain votes.
Just as the Three Stooges never rejected a script for being too silly, the DNC has never rejected a strategy for being too unscrupulous.
Ah I smell a Watergate type scandal.

>> collaborating with tea party candidates
Given the way the “Tea Party Federation” has attacked TPE, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Just posting a PING because the Texas Democrats sure got "upset" over possible connections between Republicans and the effort to get the Green Party on the state ballot this election.
I guess it all depends on which party the third candidate is syphoning votes from.
The democrats will do ANYTHING to win including cheating and fraud. Watch every move they make 24 hours a day until the votes are counted!
Ain’t just the Dems..The Rinocratic DC Oligarchy is in on this...and you can bet they’ve got a buncha phone taps goin’ on....
