Patrick Moran, son of Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA), resigned from his father's campaign on Wednesday after conservative activist James O'Keefe released a video that appears to show him offering advice to an undercover videographer who claimed to want to commit voter fraud.

"Effective immediately, I have resigned from the Moran for Congress campaign," Patrick Moran said in a statement to TPM sent from his campaign email address.

Another crooked Rat-bastard uncovered. Good job, O’Keefe.

[Joe Boucher]

Noooo,
He’s not a republican!

[alice_in_bubbaland]

Yeh right, he’ll be back on the job tomorrow.

Jeez, what a moron.

[Leep]

Maybe he, and son, will rat out other bigger rats for a lighter sentence?

[freekitty]

I would think so.

[VanDeKoik]

Damn, they didnt even give the media time to cover his rear by attacking O’Keefe! Nice!

When a real conservative TV news outlet is ever produced, this guy needs to be the #1 reporter.

How does it go?

Soap box then ballot box then ...what?

Seems like the Rats have taken away the first two...

Now what?

Did Senor Moron throw the junior Moron under the bus yet?

“O’Keefe tweeted: In an extraordinary series of events, two people have been fired, an office has been shut down, Congressman’s son has resigned, no MSM.”

This would be the same MSM that gave his old man a pass on at least three different occasions for verbal recklessness and spouting insensitivies.

Thanks for posting his tweet. Good to know that O’Keefe cited the corrupt MSM for what it is.

[SgtHooper]

Nope. Resigning to spend more time with his family. :-)

Breitbart is here.

Were? In the crow bar hotel?

"James O'Keefe ‏@JamesOKeefeIII In an extraordinary series of events, two people have been fired, an office has been shut down, Congressman's son has resigned, no MSM." NO MSM.

This man needs to be arrested right now.

I’m sure it is a felony, but since he’s a Demonrat, he won’t pay $5 or spend 5 minutes in jail for it. If he were a Repub every network would be howling for blood.

I’m sure he was taught by the best and someone much higher up . Cut him a deal for ratting out the big cheese.

The Dems engage in systematic voter fraud on a massive scale. That’s why the Republicans need a bigger margin in the opinion polls in order to put them over the top. Look what happened in Nevada in 2010. Polls were showing a dead heat and Reid ended up winning by a large margin, no doubt in part due to his magical voting machines.

Who could press the charges? VA GOP? This needs to happen post haste.
