BALTIMORE -- For the first time, the operators of a California-based Web site are revealing they have evidence that an e-mail address from the Maryland Democratic State Party is associated with MD4BUSH.
WBAL-TV 11 News I-Team reporter David Collins said the operators of FreeRepublic.com are not revealing the name behind MD4BUSH. But this is the first time that they are suggesting the state democratic party is associated with the MD4BUSH account on their Web site.
Jim Robinson, the president of the conservative Web site, issued the following statement: "Free Republic has evidence that an mddems.org (Maryland Democratic Party) e-mail address is associated with the MD4BUSH account. This is not just coincidence."
They also call on the account holder to come clean.
Free Republic has the electronic trail associated with the saga of MD4BUSH.

Last week, the name of Ryan O'Doherty, a former official with the state Democratic Party who left that job in January, surfaced publicly in connection with the MD4BUSH mystery. That happened when the governor's lawyer forwarded an e-mail with O'Doherty's name on it to the committee investigating the governor's firing practices.

The I-Team caught up with O'Doherty outside the Baltimore Metropolitan Council, where's he's held a newly created job for the past nine months. The agency is publicly funded, with close ties to the mayor and county executives.
O'Doherty is a friend of Steve Kearney, one of the mayor's top aides. Sources said Kearney first tried to get O'Doherty hired in City Hall. Kearney told 11News he couldn't remember if he provided any help.
Collins reported in response to Free Republic's disclosure, Josh White, the executive director of the state Democratic Party, said how could anyone take the word of a right-wing Website that wants nothing more than to help the governor.

I wonder if Josh White has sent an email to Mary Mapes asking for her help.
Thank you...
DANG! Have they been indicted yet? Is Schummie going to get rid of ANYONE? How does Teddie feel about his buddy's "ETHICS?"
DISGUSTING!

The time-consuming investigation -- that only ended last spring with a ruling that there was voter fraud but did not fault Sanchez and awarded her the seat -- made the Democrat a martyr with her party and Hispanics nationwide. Meanwhile, Dornan's aggressive lobbying for the election results to be overturned turned off some of his former GOP colleagues.
The 1998 Sanchez-Dornan was one of the most expensive races in the country, with each candidate's campaign war chest topping $3 million dollars. Both candidates drew donations from across the country with labor and women's groups supporting Sanchez and Dornan fund-raising with the help of conservative groups such as Phyllis Schafly's Eagle Forum.

The ethical Senator Schumer had two women on the DSSC who lifted Lt. Gov. Steele's SS# from a court document and used it to purloin his credit report. The ethical Schumer knew of this back in July and let them remain on staff until the story hit the fan.
I'm not really sure if it was covered in the Sunpapers because I refuse to have the liberal rag litter my lawn.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall of Len Downie's office tonight...
How many Washington Post employees & MD RATS are reading this thread tonight, and practicing saying, "I don't recall," "I'm not going to answer any questions," "No comment," "There is no story here," "I did nothing wrong," etc., etc.
Priceless! Hope you can keep them coming.
VERY interesting.
You're right, I just re-read the passage and see my misunderstanding. Collins is reporting what White said. ...and yes this would certainly make them some big potatoes.
I haven't really been following this, but something doesn't add up here. Why would Md4Bush use a Democratic Party e-mail address, especially when it's so easy to get a yahoo or hotmail account? Are they really that stupid?
Obviously someone needs to take Dirty Politics 101. Day one: never, ever, ever leave a trail, because it will be discovered.
I like the way Jim Rob is playing this! Keeping them close to the chest.
Thats always a good reason!:)
Is that Dilbert's Cloud of Doom approaching , MD4BUSH?
well at least it is half the size it was ..LOL
yup , reading down through these posts,it took all the way to post #37,... the MSM will not give this story legs
The Dimwit party "Culture of Corruption" mantra is ridiculous.
They ARE the party of "corruption".
"We are raising $1 million a month and are way ahead of our own projections," said Steve Jost, communications director for the National Abortion and Reproductive "Rights" Action League.
"There has been, among our supporters, a certain amount of complacency in the past eight years," Jost said. "Now, people are waking up to the fact that Bush's policies and initiatives are just way outside of the political mainstream."
